我马上要回国了，驾照明年这个时候过期，求问大家该怎么办呀！？好像听说过期后2年内不更新也没事。
你可以申请replace the license as it has been lost, stolen, defaced or destroyed
我的理解是更新不可以开车。要开车时可以在任何时候renew (不超过70岁）
我刚给家人续的。不延期的话要面临罚款1000胖子。
朋友刚续回来，他过期了十年，DVLA只要相片更新和交17胖子
那是没更新，仍然开车，然后被抓，被起诉，法官判了最高处罚的情况，现实中不会有这样的事
不管你开没开，不续驾照就犯法了，你可以再查查。看看第一段：
Motorists must renew their photocard licence when it expires. If they fail to renew their licence and supply a photo that is a recent and true likeness, they will be breaking the law and may have to pay a fine of up to £1,000.
It is important that licences are renewed. Appearances can change and it is important that photocard licences are updated every 10 years to ensure the police and other enforcement agencies have the best possible photograph. This helps them correctly identify whether a driving licence is being used fraudulently and also prevents driving licence impersonation – stopping disqualified and perhaps dangerous drivers taking to the roads.
Getting a new photocard will mean that a motorist’s driving licence will contain the latest security features to protect them against fraud. It may also make things easier when they hire a car at home or abroad.
You can now apply for a driving licence online – the service is convenient, easy to use and available 24/7.
Once DVLA has received the driver’s application, the new licence should be back with them within 3 weeks.
