747 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 It may be due to the high level inquiry at DVLA recently. A driver high on drugs killed a young lady when he lost control of his car. Police discovered that he had been to Court about 2 or 3 months earlier and banned for other serious offences. He was still able to drive because DVLA had failed to process the procedure for revoking his licence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayjsj Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 I will be 70 in June, so imagine my suprise when my renewal notice came 3 weeks ago.As i have now downsized to a PVC under 3500kg, I no longer need my C1 plus E, I used to tow a car on an A-Frame as well. I completed my application online, didnt even need a passport photo(they needed my passport no. though), filled everything in and pressed GO, now 3 weeks later I have my new 3 year license. I kept my old license until the new one arrived, and they have copied everything, my full motorcycle A license, etc. But of course no C1 , so no more vans over 3500kg, however i can tow a 1500kg Caravan behind my 3500kg PVC if i wish to quite legally........mad or what ? But no RVs or big Autotrails. End of an era. For me at least,they were very efficient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
