I know ŘP is driver's licence, just can't figure out this one. the online dictionary of abbreviations that i usually use did not have this. thank you.

Discussion

Stuart Hoskins Aug 14, 2018:
The reason it's difficult to figure out is because (as far as I know), in English, we use "driving licence" for both the průkaz (the physical card) and the oprávnění (the scope of what we are authorised to do). Situation permitting, you can probably get away with "driving licence" for both. If you're translating legal or legislative stuff and need to make a distinction, you'll have to use your discretion (e.g. translate "oprávnění" as "authorisation").

I did not use "proof", "certificate", "authorization" etc. because, in this instance, the class of the vehicle is noted on the back of the driver's license itself, of course.
