The DVLA has warned that all motorists over the age of 70 must renew their driving licence every three years or face fines.
Those who fail to renew their driving licence will no longer be legally allowed to drive after their 70th birthday. And those who continue to drive without getting a new licence will be committing a serious offence, as their licence and insurance will not be valid.
Flouting the rules can result in fines of up to £1,000 and even a ceased vehicle. However, an expired licence does not mean you have to stop driving - all you have to do is to renew it, reports the Daily Record.
