Victoria announces digital driving licence trial in Ballarat Featured
By Sam Varghese
Victoria will run a pilot of digital driving licences in Ballarat before rolling it out to the entire state.
In a statement on Monday, the State Government said drivers in Ballarat would have the option to store the digital licence either in the Services Victoria app or else the VicRoads app; the latter is to be launched soon.
Ballarat residents will be able to sign up for the trial through either the Service Victoria or VicRoads websites in June before the trial begins in July. Those who register will be invited to add a digital version of the licence to their smartphones.
The government claims the new licence will have "superior security features" and will be updated in real time. The digital version will indicate whether a licence has been suspended or revoked but will still allow the user to prove identity or age.
Victoria Roads and Road Safety Minister Melissa Horne said: "We know Victorians want digital driver licences and that’s why this trial is such a big step before further rollout occurs.
“A digital driver licence will make it easier and more convenient for Victorian motorists and it will help businesses and authorities to verify identity with minimum time and fuss.”
Government Services Minister Danny Pearson added: “This is world-class technology – the digital driver licence has a constantly refreshed unique QR code and the customer has control over the level of personal information shared.
“We know Victorians are calling out for more cards to be added to the Service Victoria wallet and that is why we are thrilled that the digital driver licence will soon be added.”
Victoria is the third state to move towards digital driving licences with NSW having launched its licence in 2019. Queensland announced a trial in Townsville in the state's north in April.
