Drivers in the UK have been urged to double-check their licences before getting behind the wheel, as failing to do so could lead to a hefty fine.
Depending on when you passed your test, or when your licence was last renewed, it's possible that it could be out of date without you even thinking to check.
Operating a vehicle without a valid licence is an example of fraudulent behaviour, and if you're caught by the police with an out-of-date card, you may be slapped with a £1,000 fine - whether you knew it had expired or not.
