Bad news for people with driver’s licences planning to vote next week

• South Africans planning to vote in the local government elections next week will not be able to use their driver's licence cards as a form of identification.
• The Department of Transport plans to amend the National Road Traffic Regulations to stop the use of Traffic Register Number certificates and learner's and driver's licences as ID documents.
• FlySafair is watching the development closely, as any change to the acceptance of driving licences as identification could have a significant impact on its customers.
