In the UK they don't need to carry a physical driver's license, because they can use an official app on their smartphones.  It sure would be handy if we could do the same in this country.  I saw some announcement about the gold card for super-annuitants having an app developed, surely the same could be done here for driver's licenses?

We should lobby the relevant government minister IMO.  Would that be the minister for transport? 

I'm sick of having to carry a wallet full of cards that my phone could easily replace!  We need an improvement in contactless payments so that high fees don't lead to half the businesses displaying "no paywave" on their EFT-POS terminals.  Then all businesses should also offer their loyalty cards as apps.  The government can play their part by having the Driver's license as well as gold card available as apps.  All I'd need to do then is get a smart lock and a Tesla and I'd only need to ensure I had my smartphone and was wearing pants when I left home!
