Yep and we're still stupid enough to be part of the EU.

I didn't know they were doing away with the counterpart ,just been and had a look on the website and they still have convictions listed even tho they have expired

nothing is sacred nowadays all your info at there disposal https://www.gov.uk/view-driving-licence

they put to much faith in these computer systems ,it will end in tears I tell ya

I find this a bit bizarre, I've never ever been asked for my paper counterpart in a single country I've worked or been on holiday.

ive been showing mine at work for insurance purposes being a truck driver ,I wondered why I have not showed it for a while ,probably coz they are accessing it through this website ,seeing as they have all my details

I dont think most cops over here are even aware of this

Never used the paper section or been asked to show it.

come to think of it don't know where it is

rented a car in Texas a couple of weeks ago and wasn't asked for the paper part

Hopefully after the election we will be head to come out of the eu

It goes further than car hire,my bank,solicitor and estate agent have all recently requested the counterpart for part of I.D confirmation

As an HGV licence holder, I have to produce the paper counterpart on a regular basis to be checked. It was supposed to be gone last year but the FTA were not happy with the situation so it got put back to June this year, whilst thier concerns got sorted out.

Was your passport not good enough for them?

I've never had a passport

that will be next ,credit card style passports and all your records online,i just think one day there will be a big cyber hack on these storage systems and it will make a right mess or am I just old

I think you're right,too many eggs in one basket.
