On a driving license issued by Queensland Austrilia, there is a word "marine". What does this word mean to be exact? I am really confused.

@roger,

@Miss L Toad,
Actually, i inquired this problem with a Chinese-Austrilian, who tole me that there is a system there linking driving skills with the sailing skills. I guess it is the flooding incidents happening in Austrilia that makes government implement this kind of wierd thing. Just a joke.

@michaelzhang,
marine means...of having to do with the ocean....I have a queensland driving licence, I think it referes to wether you have a boat licence. I am not sure why it would be on your driving licence though? maybe it is a cross reference? I have never noticed it before.

@michaelzhang,

So copy out the sentence which contains the word, and we can explain it to you.
The context is important.

It may have something to do with a (supplementary) boat licence.
