DMV to issue delayed licenses within six months

COLOMBO (News 1st); The Department of Motor Traffic said the driver's licenses that have piled up, will be issued within the next six months.

Commissioner General Nishantha Weerasinghe said over 900,000 driver's licenses have been piled up thus far.

The driver's licenses were delayed due to the lack of printers needed to print the licenses.

Weerasinghe said the Department received three new printers on Monday (27).

Accordingly, measures have been taken to commence printing from this week.
