2.6 Million Motorists Haven’t Updated Their Driving Licences

It’s easy to forget to update your driving licence when you move home or get married, but did you know that you could get fined £1,000 if you get stopped by the police?

Outdated Licences in Figures

You’re not alone. According to recent reports, 2.6million motorists are in this predicament with out-of-date licence information. When questioned, 3% of married women still had their maiden name on their licenses and 2% should have admitted a notifiable medical condition to the DVLA. Lastly, 7.5million people still have a paper-only licence.

How Can You Renew Your Licence?

It costs £20 to renew a licence, however it is free to update your name or address. You can do this by visiting the DVLA’s website here.

Of course, it is also essential that you notify your insurance provider of your change of details too.
