Corey Haim and Corey Feldman were interviewed on Larry King Live on 20th July, 2007. Both Corey's admitted to being high on drugs whilst filming "License To Drive", Feldman said " If you would like to watch some drug abuse in action, you can, let's see, "License to Drive."..... "I was a mess during that movie, for sure". Corey Haim also commented that the movie was the breaking point for him.Rewind Archive
The movie was originally to be called (and was even publicised under the name) "To Live And Drive In LA"Thanks to Tim
I purchased the VW bug used in the movie while living in Sacramento, CA in 1994. The front was damaged just before I bought it. I turned it into a Baja Bug and sold it in Hampton, Virginia in 1995.Rewind Archive
Grant Heslov, who later went on to star as "Faisil" in the 90's Schwarzenegger action flick "True Lies" makes a 'cameo' appearance as Corey's sisters 'political activist' boyfriend.Thanks to Becky Parsons
Bizarrely, Heather Graham no longer includes 'License to Drive' on her CV. Heather was seen soon after 'License to Drive' in 'Twin Peaks' as 'Annie', Agent Dale Cooper's strange girlfriend.Thanks to Sean D.
The tow-truck driver is played by R.A. Mihailoff, who essayed the role of "Leatherface" in LEATHERFACE: TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE 3.Rewind Archive
Corey Feldman told Larry King in an interview that, at the time of his tragically premature death in 2010, he and Haim were actively working on a sequel."Corey had a concept to do 'License to Fly,' which would have been a sequel to 'License to Drive.' We actually had a series of meetings this week. Both of us would have been in it. He would have been one of the writers. I would have been one of the producers. And we wanted to do a trilogy, which was all his concept."

Heather Graham grew up as a good, Catholic girl whose parents were so strict, she wasn't even allowed to watch "The Love Boat." She was also forced to turn down a starring role in "Heathers" because Mom and Dad considered the language too risque.The commentary on the most recent DVD cites that Heather Graham's father was an FBI agent in real life--and constantly on the set making everyone nervous.

Following "License To Drive," Heather Graham played a small-role as a young Mary Ann Benedict in Ivan Reitman's "Twins" [1988]. Then she played lead co-starring of Nadine opposite Matt Dillon, in Gus Van Sant's "Drugstore Cowboy" [1989], followed by a part in the dark-comedy "I Love You To Death" [1990] playing the part of Bridget. Then she starred as Kimberly in forgetable "Guilty As Charged"[1991]. Then came a co-starring role opposite 90210's Jamie Walters & John Travolta in the film "Shout"[1991]. Finally she played the part of Angie Blackburn on both the TV series and the movie of "Twin Peaks"[1990/91].Thanks to Aliki Georgiou
James Avery who plays Les's driving examiner is none other than "Phillip 'uncle Phil' Banks" from the cult TC shoe The Fresh Prince of Bel Air.Bogus Trivia
