2014年之前过境的联合王国司机可能持有过期的光卡许可证,必须更新,以避免罚款或扣押车辆。 UK drivers who passed before 2014 may have expired photocard licences and must renew to avoid fines or vehicle seizure.

2014年以前通过考试的司机可能持有过期的光卡许可证,因为根据1988年《道路交通法》,每10年需要更新一次。 Drivers who passed their test before 2014 may have expired photocard licences, as renewals are required every 10 years under the Road Traffic Act 1988. 不延期可导致罚款1 000英镑、扣押车辆和在警察停留期间丢失合法身份证。 Failure to renew can result in a £1,000 fine, vehicle seizure, and loss of legal ID during police stops. 过期日期在卡片前面第4b节列出。 The expiry date is listed in section 4b on the front of the card. 经由GOV.UK通过GOV.UK更新的费用为14英镑,大约需要5天,而邮政和邮局的备选方案的费用分别为17英镑和21.50英镑。 Renewal via GOV.UK costs £14 and takes about five days, while postal and Post Office options cost £17 and £21.50 respectively. 专家们建议避免收取额外费用的第三方网站。 Experts recommend avoiding third-party sites that charge extra fees. 政府没有授权在更新期间进行眼科检查,但安全倡导者建议进行这种检查。 The government has not mandated an eye test during renewal, but safety advocates suggest it. 不再驾车的人应将其驾照交回DVLA。 Those who no longer drive should return their licence to the DVLA.
