Both have recently passed their driving test and are two of the first recipients of the new modern credit card sized licence that is recognised throughout the EU. Almost 6,000 new licences have issued to drivers this week following the changeover from paper licences to plastic card licences on 19th January. The introduction of the plastic card licence is one aspect of an EU Directive to upgrade and standardise all licences across the EU; previously, as many as 100 different types of licence were in operation throughout the EU.
