MORE THAN FIVE out of every six drivers who were disqualified from driving in 2020 did not surrender their licence to the authorities as required by law.
Figures provided by Minister of State for International and Road Transport and Logistics Hildegarde Naughton show that just 1,021 motorists out of 6,846 who were disqualified up to 15 November surrendered their licence to the Road Safety Authority (RSA).
