Make sure you renew
It is good news that the renewal of a driving license is now more convenient than ever. As a driving licence holder, you would know that it is the most important document on the road. It is the first thing that the police asks for when you are stopped because of an incident, or a routine check. Driving without a valid driving licence attracts a penalty of Rs 5,000. However, now that renewing a driving licence is so convenient, do not let the pandemic be an excuse for non-renewal.
As you would have noted, the online driving licence renewal process involves the confirmation of personal details, filling up of necessary information, submission of the application, uploading of mandatory documents, and payment of the renewal fee. Make sure you keep your documents ready to be uploaded before applying. We hope that you have a smooth renewal experience and get a valid driving licence in no time.
