COtBOfcNE &&OAICLE, Thursday, January 31st, last ONTARIO DRIVERS HAVE RESPONSIBILITY RE LICENCE RENEWALS Two-thirds of Ontario's 2.7 million drivers will have their licences renewed this year. For most it will be a sir procedure. But for some drivers who haven't kept the Department of Transport advised of changes of address there could be complications. Applications are presently being mailed at the rate of 180,000 per month, and already many are being returned "ad- "All drivers have a responsi-dress unknown", bility first to notify the Depart: ment of changes of address and second, to take any steps ne sary to obtain their renewed drivers licences on time," said Transport Minister Irwin Haskett. The law requires drivers to advise the Department of changes of address within six days. If the renewal form mailed to you goes astray for any reason said Mr. Haskett, the driver is not released from his obligations Mr. Haskett urged all Ontario drivers to check their present licences to determine the expiry date. Anyone who does not receive a renewal form three weeks before the expiry date printed on his present licence is asked to make direct application to the nearest licence bureau or by mail to the Ontario Department of Transport, Parliament Buildings, Toronto. The Ontario Department of Transport has issued a warning that driving privileges which have been allowed to lapse for more than a year, will no longer be restored without a driving test. In the past, no test has been required for renewals within two years. The time has now been shortened, however, and holders of 1963 licences must renew by avoid the necessity of taking a January 31st, 1965, if they are to driving test.
