It's vital to check your driving documents are in date before getting behind the wheel
Drivers in the UK have been urged to double-check their licences before getting behind the wheel, as failing to do so could lead to a hefty fine.
Operating a vehicle without a valid licence is an example of fraudulent behaviour, and if you're caught by the police with an out-of-date card, you may be slapped with a £1,000 fine - whether you knew it had expired or not. Meanwhile, more than one in 10 UK drivers don't even know that their licence has an expiry date at all.
She added: "To avoid serious consequences and avoid having a fraudulent driving licence, it’s vital to renew your licence as soon as it expires. Driving licences expire every 10 years, so you should memorise the expiry date on your licence and make a note of it somewhere you won’t forget, like your phone calendar.
