When we circulate with our vehicle through the national territory, it is mandatory that we carry a series of documentation with us. In addition, the car must have passed the ITV and maintain all the documentation in orderotherwise we expose ourselves to a fine and even a ban on driving.
As it could not be otherwise, among the papers that we must carry with us is the registration certificate of the car itself and our driver’s license. Obviously the aforementioned ITV It must be in order and the vehicle in condition to circulate on the roads. It may seem silly, but a good part of the fines for years refer to the lack of this documentation or basic aspects to be able to drive on Spanish roads.
However, little by little technology is coming into force to help us with basic aspects regarding the documentation that we must carry with us. To begin with, we will tell you that one of the most common fines for many years is for the lack of a driver’s license if requested by someone traffic agent. This is an accrediting document that we must always carry with us if we are about to take the car. Or at least this was the case until now, since as we told you, now technology is going to help us.
And it is that there is an application that we can download on our mobile device and that will allow us not to have to always carry the driving license with us. Specifically, we are referring to the application provided by the General direction of traffic call my DGT. At this point it is worth mentioning that we will have the possibility of installing it both on our Android-based mobile and on iOS from Apple.
You will not be fined for not having a driver’s license
We only have to register and register in this application with the corresponding personal data that will be requested so that we always carry this official document with us. And it is that from now on it is no longer necessary to carry the physical driving license above if we have this application running. This means that in the event that the police or an authorized agent requests this document, we can show it directly from the corresponding section of the my DGT application.
To do this we only have to start the app as such and in the main interface that appears on the screen we find a link that says See my card. By clicking on it, an official reproduction of our driving license will appear with our personal data and a photo of us. In short, this means that we carry an official document of the General direction of traffic corresponding to our driving license, on the mobile.
In turn and through this same application we will obtain other very interesting data corresponding to the DGT itself. Likewise, here we will see all the data pertaining to our vehicle and even its updated registration certificate. Likewise, we will have at our disposal the situation of the ITV, the points of our card, or if we have any pending fine.
