Motorists warned about problems hiring cars abroad - BBC News (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-32481382)
Motorists going abroad after 8 June are being warned they will need to take a special code with them if they want to hire a car.
From that date the paper counterpart of British driving licences - which records endorsements and fines - is being computerised.
To obtain it, motorists will have to log on to the DVLA website beforehand.But the code is only valid for 72 hours, so anyone wanting to hire a car more than three days into their trip will need to generate a new code while they are abroad.
