I will be attending at the university of Neuchatel this year and I'm confused about the driving age and requirements. When I reach there I'll be 18 but in Canada I started driving when I was 16 got my g1 and g2 not long ago so how would it be translated there and would I be able to drive alone and bring my car over there?
The legal age for driving motor vehicles in Switzerland is 18.
According to the website for the government of Neuchâtel:
*Your driver's license is valid until you have resided in Switzerland for over 12 months. In order for the count to be 'reset' you would have to leave Switzerland for three consecutive months.
The website goes on to explain that you can apply for a Swiss driver's license by going to your nearest 'mairie' (town hall) and requesting a Swiss Driver's license. You will simply need to prove by means of a practical test that your are able to drive a car, that you are aware of Swiss traffic laws and that you are able to drive the categories of vehicles for which your permit will be valid.
Hope this helped,

Issues when moving permanently from one country to another
Most license-issuing authorities require holders of "foreign" licenses taking up residence in their jurisdiction to obtain a local driver's license within a limited time (typically 6 months or 1 year). In most cases, the driver must follow the full local procedure for obtaining a license, but some jurisdictions have mutual recognition agreements and will exchange the foreign license for a local one without the need to undertake an additional driving test.
An exception is the EU, where licenses do not need to be exchanged since the introduction of the common EU-driver's-licence scheme.
[edit] Canada
British Columbia has a reciprocal license exchange scheme for countries below provided the license is valid or expired less than 3 years ago [15] :
* Canadian provinces and territories
* United States
* Austria
* Germany
* Switzerland
* Japan
* South Korea
Ontario has a reciprocal license exchange scheme [16] for :
* Canadian provinces and territories;
* Canadian Forces Europe;
* United States (applicants from Illinois, New Jersey and Vermont must provide a driving abstract dated within 6 months)
* Austria, Belgium, France, Great Britain, Germany, Japan, Korea, and Switzerland.
