With millions of drivers on the roadways, the management of driving privileges, moving violations, fine issuance and license revocation in most nations is complex and disorganized. The widespread use of insecure, paper and plastic driver licenses results in the proliferation of fraudulent licenses, a lack of control over the issuance of driving privileges and the increased circulation of unauthorized drivers on the roadways. Moreover, the inability of traditional card media to communicate with information systems reduces the management of license issuance and fine management systems to manual, uncontrollable administrative processes providing limited information availability and high operating costs. Most importantly, the inability to reliably establish an individual's driving history during routine traffic stops prevents authorities from recognizing unauthorized drivers, repeat offenders, and effectively holding them accountable for their actions.
