Passing your test is fantastic, amazing, brilliant. You want to tell everyone that you're FINALLY allowed to get in that car and go.<\/p>\n\n
Oversharing<\/h2>\n\n
So you selfie with your driving instructor, you selfie with your old L-plates, you selfie with your brand spanking new driving licence. Then you share everything all over the internet.<\/p>\n\n
Without thinking about it, you've just given the world enough personal information to use your identity to commit fraud.<\/p>\n\n
You're on top of the world now, but how would you feel if, months from now, you discovered that your identity has been used to obtain a loan or a credit card in your name? That would kind of ruin it, huh?\n\n\n\t
What's on your driving licence:<\/h2>\n\n

\n\t\t
Your photo<\/li>\n
Your name<\/li>\n\t\t
Your date of birth<\/li>\n\t\t
Your signature<\/li>\n\t\t
Your address<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<\/div>\n
\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
All these things together are like Christmas for an identify thief, so be very careful what you post online. <\/p>\n\t\n\t
