E: 01/04 win peace of mind

This site is coming on line at the beginning of April but I won't be here then but have managed to access it early - I am so glad I did. The site will display your driving licence on screen for anyone and everyone to see. However, if you act quickly ie before the beginning of April, you can ask for your licence details to be removed. I did.

If you put in your name, gender and city it should work for you if you put in a canadian state - I used CA Yukon - perhaps it is because Canada is part of the commonwealth.

Good luck
