Hi all,

I have just received a form from the dvla to renew my photo driving licence. My question is do I have to renew it at a charge of £20 or can I just keep driving using my "old" green licence I received in the 80's. I cannot for the life of me remember why I got a photo one :oops:, but it was probably because I travelled in Europe a fair bit in the early noughties & thought it would be easier. Either that or when I got caught speeding :LOL:

any help appreciated

cheers

Willy

As far as I'm aware when you get a photo licence it supersedes the green paper one. If you don't have a photo one and your details haven't changed then you are legally allowed to carry on with the original. So I think you will have to pay this glorified tax to be able to carry on driving :evil:

yep, in theory you should have submitted your old green paper one when you got your new photocard one, unfortuntaly you will have to shell out to get a new photo, on the bright side its cheaper than a passport renewal :)
