17 year old US drivers license - ok to drive in UK?

Question:
I am a 17 year old US citizen who will be visiting England this summer. Is it legal for me to drive with my US drivers license? It is not considered a provisional license in America, since I am 17, but it does have a few restrictions, like max 0% alcohol blood level until age 18. I will be age 17 at the time of visiting.

No, you can't drive with just a US license. You need to get an IDP (International Driver's Permit), which you can obtain from your local AAA office.

How much will my car insurance go up if I make a claim?

Yes but only if you are visiting. I have put the relevant web site link below for you to check. You do not make it clear how long you are staying etc so you can take their little test to see if you can continue driving in the UK without taking a UK test or changing your licence..

As long as you can get insured you are entitled to drive in the UK for one year on a FULL US Licence. If you stay longer than one year you can send your licence to the DVLA in the UK with a form and they will keep your US licence and issue a UK one without you taking a test.

Don't bother with an international permit, they're a waste of time as long as you have a licence from a recognised authority like US Licence issuers.

If police wrote down my driver license, what should i do next?

You might find it difficult due to insurance requirements as you are 17 and have a foreign drivers licence.
You might be restricted to driving an automatic car if you didn't pass your test in a manual (stick) car. In the UK you are only allowed to drive a manual car if you have passed the driving test in a manual car.
Also you cannot exchange your US licence to a UK licence, The UK doesn't recognise a US driving licence. So you would have to take the driving test, which is much harder than taking it in the US.
