New style driving licence question.........

[KFC]

[R0G]

If that letter is real then how come every new licence I have seen has an amber light?
I have seen loads of new licences and so has my mate in the LGV training industry

Everything I've had from DVLA is in Times New Roman...

How can that letter make sense? It refers to a car, so how should that affect YOUR license if someone else was driving it? Seems funny to me, especially as there is no mention of it that I can see on the Government website. It is more than likely just a design, like the steering wheel. I need to renew mine soon as I am moving address, so I'll be able to see what I get back. I have zero points, never had points, have no pending convictions.

That's a cracking letter. Definitely genuine.

I'm surprised the address isn't for their HQ in Nigeria, mind you

Reg number also something of a give away

Good effort though KFC

That letter makes no sense at all. Some sort of wind up.

[RedBull]

Definately Cobblers that, unless everyone recently issued with a licence has a prosecution pending.

Either KFC is trying to fool all of PH, or someone has fooled him.

I have an amber signal on my licence which was renewed early this month for a picture update, no news of any prosecution though.

[Magic919]

DVLA spelling licence incorrectly. Hmmm.

[HTP99]

I've had a look at the online leaflet that accompanies a licence, there is no mention of the traffic lights so I guess it is just an additional marking to help prevent counterfeiting.

Original of KFC's "letter"

Has anyone tried tilting the licence to see if the symbol changes colour at different angles as did the steering wheel?

Yes and it doesn't.

Mine's orange and I've got convictions.

Looks like orange is just standard.

Nice try mr KFC haha, what a loser to go through that effort.

Do you have a life? not very interesting life?

[anonymous-user]

I thought it was a reasonably funny trolling effort myself. Don't take it so seriously

Well, there is trolling and there is giving out false information. Which he did both.

[Pebbles167]

Lighten up, it was ment in jest!

That BETA site from dvla is great though.....

I mean I've just found out I've been able to drive a road roller since 1983 !!!!

Oh what could have been if I'd have known......

[ging84]

faking dvla letters seems to take trolling a bit too far

also failing to change the date to the right year was a big fail
