Hi people, I take it that some of you asking questions have not read my interview with NTSA's Fernando Wangila who had earlier on shed some light on some of your concerns. http://www.techweez.com/2017/07/11/ntsa-smart-driving-license-kenya-roads/ On Wed, Jul 12, 2017 at 3:09 PM, Watila Alex via kictanet < kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> wrote:
Good afternoon,
Was reading about it (http://www.businessdailyafrica.com/news/ Uhuru-launch-digital-driving-licences/539546-4010774-jm7r8hz/index.html) and wondered if the underlying laws have been updated e.g. traffic offenses being charged on points instead of fines.
I was also wondering about the underlying business case. Is it to stop corruption by traffic police? Weed out fake driving licenses? Etc
Regards,
Alex

Listers,
Whereas this is a bold move by NTSA towards digitization, i feel we are missing a bigger opportunity of digitizing our National ID cards and integrate the Driving Licence, Educational Qualification, Health records, KRA tax records and even Election and Travel documentation into one seamless document.
I note that the new design is a chip and PIN that is a repository of Biometric information that is the common denominator in most documents. There is need for intra-government collaboration to ride on the crest of emerging technologies and deploy services to citizens with forward looking solutions and efficiencies.
