Motorists urged to visit testing centre’s to avoid clogging in 2021
“Pensioners are not compelled to make an online booking to access a DLTC.”
License holders were urged to visit driving licence testing centres as soon as possible to avoid clogging in January 2021.
“They should do so by booking on the online booking platform at online.natis.gov.za,” said the Road Traffic Management Corporation (RTMC).
It said motorists could visit any of the centres of their choice to renew their drivers’ licence cards.
“On Monday, all driving licensing testing centres would avail slots for renewal of driver licence cards and professional driving permit applications.
“These are slots which will be available to people whose driving licence cards have not yet expired, while all centres will avail slots for renewal based on available resource and their operational plan.”
All centres would also have slots for driver’s and learner’s license test applications, it promised.
“When slots are released on this day, applicants successfully secure an appointment and must confirm their bookings.
“Bookings must be confirmed by making a payment any day from Wednesday to Friday. Failure to pay on time will result in the cancellation of the secured booking.
“Wednesdays are dedicated to pensioners and have been declared pensioners’ walk-in day.”
On every Wednesday, all centres authorised to perform renewals would make resources to assist pensioners with their driving licence card renewals.
