    We still have the former EU-standard paper licence we've had for about 20 years.

    Before my time, think it was a pink/purple book from a photo on here before.

    Oddly enuf manutd,the late Seamus Brennan TD,in his first major policy speech after becoming Minister for Transport declared that the introduction of a Credit Card style Driving Licence was his absolute priority.

    Seamus is no longer with us,and his promise re the CC Driving Licence,like so many other political promises remains floating on the wind.......:o

    Like many things, they're waiting on the EU to take care of it for them. There's an EU-wide credit card style driving license on its way in 2012 so we should get it then.
