Two MPs have voiced their concerns over the DVLA selling motorist details to "shady operators and crooks".
Their concerns have been backed up by the Association of British Drivers (ABD) who said that car owners should not have to worry about their personal information being passed on to "extortionists", especially as all motorists must register their details with the DVLA. Effectively there is no way to "opt out" of a scheme that could involve the re-sale of personal details: including name, address, and registration number.
A spokesman from ABD, Nigel Humphries said: "They (motorists) expect such information to be retained by the government for official purposes only." Mr Humphries has suggested that government leaders work towards closing this loophole in the law.
