Driving license (DL) has been taken over by the new wave of digital migration, moving away from the old paper license document to a tamper-proof plastic card complete with a microprocessor.
The new DL contains the information pertaining to the driver in a bid to revolutionize road safety in the country and eliminating fraud.
