DVLA warning to drivers over 'copycat' websites charging money for free services

The DVLA has issued a warning to all motorists about the types of websites they're using for official driving enquiries, applications and information.

The government department is responsible for holding over 50 million driver records and is the only service you can use for applying for or renewing licences, or taxing your vehicle.

Because of this, important personal information is given to the DVLA from drivers every day. The government body has warned people to check that they're using the correct and official website to do this, otherwise drivers could be at risk of getting scammed.
