How You Can Renew Your License In A Bank And All The Participating Banks

Registration of vehicles and obtaining licences for your vehicles is a way to show that the vehicle in question is fit for the roads. It is also a way to reduce the accidents on our roads caused by bad vehicles. Vehicle licences also make the vehicles easily traceable by the police. This will become important if the said vehicle is stolen or is used to perpetrate crime.

 

Many vehicle owners in Nigeria do not renew their vehicle licences once the old ones expire and as a result, a large number of vehicles in Nigeria do not have up to date licences. The regulating body can also not keep track of vehicles in good conditions and this can in turn lead to accidents on our roads. Some stolen vehicles may never be recovered because the licences are not up to date and cannot be traced.

 

Thus, the regulating body which is the Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC) have laid down the procedures relevant for vehicle licensing and renewal. The renewal is the most neglected aspect which is what we will be concerned with in this article.
