Following a successful trial of digital drivers licences in Dubbo, the NSW Government will introduce legislation into Parliament in May 2018 to enable a state-wide rollout of digital drivers licences. 

If the legislation is passed, a driver could show his/her digital licence as proof of identity during a roadside Police check, as well as proof of age to gain entry into pubs and clubs.
