"A driver's license in one country" doesn't convey any meaning as such it should be "Having A driver's license in one country".

I am leaning towards B.

This question also tests idioms (to be "enough to X") in a way the current GMAT probably doesn't any more.

So the answer should be "A" using the correct idiom?

I think there is nothing wrong with A.
