Well well. The international driver license or permit is only a traduction of your driver license. Try to obtain an international driver license if , lets say, your Florida driver license is suspended. The int. driver license does not give you more right than your regular driver license does. Somes countries won't let you drive without it (the international) others like the D.R. yes (see the D.R. law).
Ask the U.S. Consulate which D.R. law says that you can drive in the D.R. for more than 90 days with an international driver license.
