Motorists with expired licences can breathe a sigh of relief, for now.
This follows the recent announcement by Transport Minister Fikile Mbalula that all driving licences, including temporary ones and PDPs, which expired between 26 March 2020 and 31 August 2021, will still be valid until 31 March 2022.
Among the interventions that the department plans to put in place are the establishment of more testing centres (DLTCs), particularly in Gauteng where the backlog remains dire, and the introduction of mobile centres and kiosks at busy centres.
