Brunei: Private Vehicle Ownership, Use & Driving Standards


PRIVATE VEHICLE OWNERSHIP AND USE


1. The use of Private Vehicles by BFB personnel (military, civilian and spouses) is subject to both UK Military and Bruneian Law. Failure to comply with the appropriate legislation may lead to prosecution both military and civil authorities.

2. Standards of driving in Brunei may appear to be lower than those enforced in the UK, however BFB personnel are held to a basic minimum standard consistent with UK driving standards. These are laid out for absolute clarity of all members of BFB in BFB Standing Order 1007, accessible on the Sharepoint. BFB personnel are required to familiarise themselves with the contents of the Standing Order and adhere to them at all times.
