With so many technical advances in the vehicle industry it seems that the DVLA are eager to keep up with the times. Although they have stressed that this will not replace the current plastic licences, they have announced that they will be piloting a scheme throughout 2017 which will allow drivers to access their licence through their phones.

The new service has been described as a 'quick, easy and secure' way to share and validate information with trusted third-parties. This could revolutionise the way you could secure rental cars in the future, with reports estimating that this could be a widely available service by 2018.

Green Motion always put the customer experience first and are excited to hear more about this service and the possibilities it will open up in the future. We hope that this will be able to bring speed and efficiency to the rental check-out process.

Not only do we offer the best in customer service we also provide a unique rental experience focusing on the environment at highly competitive prices.
