Chief Executive of the Drivers and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA), Julius Neequaye Kotey, has outlined new reforms aimed at revolutionising vehicle registration and service delivery in Ghana, with technology at the heart of his strategy.
Mr Kotey revealed that the DVLA will, from January, roll out a new Digital Processing (DP) sticker designed to improve accountability in vehicle registration. "The new DP sticker allows us to track who is driving the car, when it arrived in Ghana, its destination, and the date the sticker expires. "Once scanned, the code reveals all these details.
It was wrong to have cars in the system without knowing their owners, but now, right from the port, we know who owns the vehicle," he said on Face to Face on Channel One TV.
He further disclosed that the new system will also make license plates more informative. "For instance, a plate will read GR 222 AD, with AD representing Adenta.
