Expert shares seven changes drivers must declare to DVLA or face hefty fines

Drivers are being warned they could face fines if they don't declare certain information to the authorities.

Motoring experts at Quotezone.co.uk say many people are unaware they risk hefty penalties for failing to update the DVLA on specific matters and withholding details. There are a range of things the UK’s Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency need to be notified of, including common medical conditions and address or name changes.

Penalties for not doing so are serious and could set drivers back up to £1,000 and six points on their licence. If a driver is involved in an accident and has failed to declare the information, they could also be prosecuted.
