Has Your Drivers Licence Expired?

[Zed]

When the new card/photo type NZ drivers licence came into effect mine was good for 5 years, as will be the case for many others. By chance I checked it the other day and the darn thing had expired 3 months ago!! So last Thursday I whipped into the local AA shop and applied for a renewal which cost $44 and meant that I had to do the eyesight test again, write out my signature, and have another mugshot taken. They issued me with a temporary paper licence and said the new one would be delivered in approximately 3 weeks, but it arrived in the mail today just 4 working days later, good eh!

So check your expiry date on your licence before you find out the hard way!

Btw, the new licence is good for 10 years this time. :spudguita

4 working days ha? shame the IRD isnt that quick! haha
im pretty sure my 10years reset when i got my restricted *sigh*

surely they would send a letter to you telling you it expired tho? maybe check the pile of unopened speeding fines sitting on your desk, the letter might be in there somewhere ;) hehe

It's something the Govt gives you in exchange for lots of dosh, so they can take it away if you have too much fun.

Crashe, you're far too organised. That's scary.

I had to get mine renewed 1 month after my boss and seeing as I needed my license for work I wasn't allowed to lapse. Dunno what I'll do next time around cos I don't work there anymore.

Yep. As an aside, has anyone realised that the word 'revenue' is a contraction?
