Driving licence card printer broken again

[WhosThis]

So what happens if your driving license expires in the meantime?

Dunno but ive been driving without a license or a number plate for 3 years now.
R50 goes a long way. Also a lot cheaper than renewing, not to mention a ton less effort.

Why would i go line up and stand in a crowded shthole for 6 hours if i can just carry a 50 in my pocket

Same but DL Card, not exactly proud of it but is what is it. License disc is always up to date though.

Yet to be pulled over (touch wood).

and if you're in an accident and need to claim from insurance?

No valid license is a reason to repudiate

So glad I got mine renewed a month ago.

But I feel for the people waiting for theirs, especially new drivers who've passed the driving examinations.

Did the same. Most annoying thing is going into a gated business complex and being told your license has expired.

If you paying bribes, you're part of the problem in contributing to corruption, incentivizes traffic officers asking for a "cool drink". Just saying.

It never does, just the card does and there is still no law for that currently. You could get a fine from a clueless traffic cop, but you can also get it squashed as the card expires not the drivers.

I had a friend who didn't update his DL card for 10 years, he went in and got it renewed only when a rental agency gave him grief over it. There is still this perception that an expired card is an expired license.

Checked mine this morning to see it expires in 2024. And then my foggy, early morning brain said "wait. It's 2024 now'. And that's how I Googled "what year is it"
