Worth knowing! FYI

From 8 June 2015, the photo card licence counterpart will not be valid and will no longer be issued by DVLA.

Been planned for a while, it did seem silly to trade in a paper licence for a photo card and a paper licence when they modernised a few years ago

Just sent my photocard licence off for renewal as it expires at the end of February... oops!

Hope they get the correct classes on it when they redo it - I've kept a photocopy of the old one

Thay are only valid for 10 years, fortunately you do get a reminder :)

Looks to me that says that you can only provisionally ride motorcycles
Are you sure it's yours?

Doh! A blessed eagle-eyed swan.

That's just a random interweb pic...mine is chiselled into stone.
