RARE PHOTOS: Dvla issues 1 000 warning to every driver who passed test before 2014 | Rare Historical Photos

The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) has warned anyone who passed their driving test before 2014 that it is almost time to renew their licence before its 10-year expiration date arrives or face a heavy fine.

Photocard driving licences, first introduced in 1998, are only valid for a decade after they are issued and anyone who continues to drive with an expired permit after that point could be fined as much as £1,000 or even have their vehicle seized.
