Five months ago, I wrote 1 that 'my driving licence - the small, plastic covered, real licence arrived. Looking closely at it, I see that the expiration date is 03/08/26, which just happens to be my 70th birthday. There is no mention of how I get a new licence after that: presumably I apply at the Ministry of Transport's website then wait another few months for the new licence to arrive in the post. In other words, this entire saga will repeat itself!'.
I had got the notion that I would be sent a medical form towards the expiration of the licence so that I could have my eyes checked once again and have my GP confirm that I am medically capable of driving. But no form has arrived, so the other day I went back to the transport ministry's website where I was informed that 'your licence is about to expire'. Tell me something that I don't know. All I had to do to renew the licence was pay an exorbitant 269 NIS fee and then I received on the spot a new licence that is valid for six years.
When I write 'a new licence', I mean that I received a PDF of the licence that I printed out. The real 'small, plastic covered' licence is 'in the post', but I won't hold my breath until it arrives.
