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.

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.
