The government is considering several changes to driving licence cards in an effort to grapple with a growing backlog, says transport minister Fikile Mbalula.
This would effectively harmonise the systems of the Department of Home Affairs and the Department of Transport, he said. He confirmed that the Road Traffic Management Corporation was also investigating the possibility of extending the validity of driving licences to 10 years. He noted that several other countries have already integrated the driving licence into their identity cards.
With the introduction of the eDL, the motorist will have an option to apply for a physical card and electronic driver’s licence which will be accessible through a motorist’s mobile phone.
