Vehicular Licensing

      Wa-Daisho needs money to maintain their roads, ports, and such while at the same time keeping inexperienced operators of machinery from piloting, driving, or navigating anything they are unqualified for. Thus it was only logical to issue licenses, at a cost. Many employers will pay these fees, providing that the person under the employ of the company is actually qualified to operate the machinery the license is being issued for. Vehicles themselves must be authorized by a qualified mechanic to be certain that it is safe to operate on Wa-Daisho's streets (skies, seas, etc.), before they can be licensed with an ID plate or code. These ID plates/codes are good for five years, and cost only 40 credits per vehicle. The cost of operational licenses are as follows. NOTE, these prices and durations do -NOT- include the cost of classes to learn the actual skills, those are taught elsewhere for additional charges, or are learned by the student elsewhere. There is no way a person could learn to pilot an aircraft in three, three hour classes. These classes are simply to educate the student on the rules and regulations concerning this license in Wa-Daisho. Here are the prices;
