The working group has stated that a driver’s licence only proves a person’s right to drive and that it is not meant as a document which establishes identity. When a license is granted, identity checks do not always occur. Forging a driver’s license is not particularly difficult.
The group recommends that, instead of a driver’s license, a personal identification card should be used. They would also like to look closer into the issuing procedures of passports and identification cards.
The working group submitted its report to the Minister of the Interior Anne Holmlund on Wednesday.
