350,000 expired driving licences pose business risk

Businesses risk major compliance failures with new research finding there are more than 350,000 expired driving licences in the UK.

This could result in fines of £1,000 and invalidated motor insurance policies.

To safeguard businesses, Jaama will highlight its driver licence checking solution at Road Transport Expo 2025.

This solution offers real-time licence verification, automated re-checks based on risk profiles, and instant alerts for offences, disqualifications, or points. All checks are logged in a full audit trail, supporting internal policies and external regulatory requirements.

The cloud-based Licence Portal ensures nothing falls through the cracks, with centralised driver records, automated reminders, real-time dashboards and allows for more frequent checks for high-risk drivers.

Mark Francis, chief product officer at Jaama, said:

“Licence compliance is a fundamental part of fleet safety and risk management. Too many businesses still rely on manual checks and spreadsheets, which leave huge gaps. Our software closes those gaps — and by offering free licence checks at RTX, we’re inviting operators to see the benefits first-hand.”
