Police pulled over a driver in Kent in the UK — and discovered their license had expired 43 years ago.
Traffic officers stopped the car — a Honda — at a petrol station in Dover on Saturday, Dec. 7.
After inquiries, they discovered that the driver previously had their license revoked for a drunk driving offense — and had expired in 1981.
Kent Roads Policing said on X: “Officers on patrol in the Dover area stopped this vehicle and established that the driver’s license expired in 1981, having previously been disqualified for drunk driving.
“TOR [Transfer of Residence] issued and vehicle seized.”
TORs have replaced fixed penalty tickets and are given for minor traffic offenses where an officer considers further action is appropriate.
