What about the eye test?
You can do the eye test on the day of the payment at the DLTC or; go to a recognised eye specialist where a certificate will be issued that will be accepted at the testing station.
I selected my preferred testing station but cannot get a booking for my preferred date and time.
If the date and time that you prefer is not available, it could be that it has been already allocated as the system is live or the testing station is fully booked for the date and time you prefer. You can either wait until booking timeslots become available or try a different testing station.
The date and time is not convenient for me at the testing station.
You can either try for a date and time at a different testing station that is more convenient or select a different date and time as all testing stations have specific days on which they test certain licence categories and it could be that the times are already allocated.
Penalties for an expired driving licence.
Currently, there are no penalties for renewing an expired driving licence, however, you are encouraged to renew your licence as soon as it nears its expiry date and obtain a temporary driving licence if you require it before you receive your driving licence card.

What Is Comprehensive Insurance?
Comprehensive insurance coverage, also known as “other than collision” coverage, is a car insurance coverage that can help pay the costs of damage to your car for non-collision related claims. For example, it can help pay for damages caused by hail, theft, fire or hitting an animal. It’s important to keep in mind that this coverage is optional. You have to add it on top of other coverages you may have, like liability insurance. But, if you’re financing or leasing your car, your lender will likely require it.
What Does Comprehensive Insurance Cover?
Your comprehensive insurance pays for damage caused by:
- Natural disasters, like hurricanes or tornados
- Vandalism
- Theft
- Fire
- Falling objects
- A civil disturbance, like a riot
- Hitting an animal, like if you hit a deer
- Glass damage
Your comprehensive car insurance policy will not help cover:
- Damage to your car from a collision
- Medical expenses
- Legal fees
- Lost income for you or your passengers if you miss work after an accident
- Damage to another person’s car from a collision
- Property stolen from your car
Comprehensive Car Insurance Deductibles and Limits
Your deductible is the amount you pay on your claim before your auto coverage kicks in. Once you pay that, your car insurance will cover the rest of your costs, up to your limit. Let’s say your car is damaged and will cost $6,000 to repair, and your deductible is $1,000. You’ll only pay out of pocket for the $1,000 deductible, and then your insurance company will pay the other $5,000 on your comprehensive claim. When you buy comprehensive insurance, you’ll choose a deductible amount.
What Car Insurance Do I Need?
Statistics prove that driving can be dangerous, and drivers should safeguard against these risks by taking out insurance to meet their needs and budget from the 3 main types:
Comprehensive vehicle insurance which although most expensive provides the best cover and protection in event of accident, theft and, damage including flooding and fire.
Third-party fire and theft that, despite being less expensive and not covering car replacement, provides cover for damage caused by fire, theft and, hijacking.
Third-party cover, usually the cheapest in the market, only covers damage to other vehicles in the accident.

Normal wear and tear
