Furthermore, do I have to renew my driving licence at 73?
Driving licences expire at 70 years of age, so when you reach 70, you need to renew your driving licence if you wish to continue driving. You then need to renew it every three years afterwards. If you do not renew your licence, you will not legally be allowed to drive after your 70th birthday.
Secondly, what age do you stop driving UK? No age limit
At the moment there is no upper age limit for driving in the UK, which means you could carry on driving until you were a 100 or more. In fact, Britain's oldest licence holder in 2015 was 107. However, the DVSA will send you a form to renew your licence when you turn 70.
Beside this, how many years can you get a driving licence for?
Duration of licence
Your age determines how long your licence will be issued for, so you may be able to renew your licence for 10 years, 3 years or something in between, depending on how old you are. If you are under 60, you can apply for a 10-year licence or a 3-year licence (on medical grounds).
