Renewal of Driving Licence
OK so I am a dinasour ... but only discovered today that the photo driving licence only lasts 10 years and has to be renewed after this time at a cost of £20 ...
so 10% of the driving population are having to cough up each year.
I thought (naively) that it lasted until I was 70 but there is a date under 4b on the front of the photocard which gives the expiry date.

Re: Renewal of Driving Licence
We could have kept our old paper ones, and never needed to exchange them unless moving house. Mind you the photo on mine is so atrocious, I might be quite happy to change it
It also costs £20 to replace if you lose it...my son 'lost' his, bit of a problem getting served anywhere, applied to get a new one, then found the old one in his wallet - clown
Nice little earner for the government though

Re: Renewal of Driving Licence
te he - if they don't let us drive we can get a horse and cart and drive over blubberhouses (very slowly)
Re: Renewal of Driving Licence
Do you know, I'd love to be able to use a horse and cart as my form of chosen transport - it's just that my back yard's not big enough to keep a horse AND cart in - one or t'other, oh, and the horse couldn't turn round - would that matter?

Re: Renewal of Driving Licence
Blubberhouses is a hamlet on the a59 between Harrogate and Skipton (ie twixt me and snowdrops).. very scenic but rather slow going!
