My Address on someone elses licence
Options
Hi, Not sure if is the right place to post this but here goes.
Got home from work today to find an envelope from DVLA, I opened it without looking at the address label and there was a Picture driving licence in it. It's for a Turkish man but it has my address and postcode. Is it likely to be a mistake by DVLA? and what do I do about it.
Do I need to contact DVLA or the Police?
Thanks for any help. Sorry Should have said it isn't in my name.

Or someone trying to stay anonymous......... Happens a lot with immigrants (legal or not) who try to avoid the costs of motoring! But usually they pick an unoccupied address!!“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”

I've seen a lot of claims where, when you turn up at an address, the person living there has never heard of the person you're trying to find. Sometimes they've had insurance docs or logbooks through the post.
Personally, I'd take a copy of the driving licence and then take it to the police. The DVLA won't care. The police might be slightly more interested.0 -
Can’t see why the police would be even remotely interested, I’d either just drop it in the bin or send it back to DVLA with a covering letter.0

Wouldn't be the first time the DVLA made a mistake like this.“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”

Do you want to sell it? How old is the Turkish bloke? In the photo, is he 'obviously' Turkish, if you know what I mean?0
