The third European Commission (EC) Driving Licence Directive 2006/126/EC introduced a number of new obligations on member states. ...

The Directive does not allow drivers to have more than one EU/EEA driving licence. In the UK it is not possible to apply for a licence if you already hold another licence.

... stop drivers holding more than one EU/EEA driving licence. Any breach of this new provision will be an offence

Maybe a Brexit bonus if it's been rescinded?
She only has one EU license and IIRC she wasn't given the option of transferring it so had to take a second test.

I've applied for a Fronch licence but I have no intention of giving up my UK licence.
Screw it being an offence.

I just had a reply about my driving licence transfer to Fronch, 5 months after my initial enquiry to tell me they're dealing with it.
I might just tell them I can't be bothered.
