How does the Social Driver's License program work?
The main difference with the Social Driver's License program is that this program does not belong to the Department of Motor Vehicles (Detran), which is why it can be obtained free of charge. This means that the application is made through the State entity itself, guaranteeing the free service. The Detran cannot offer free issuance of new documents, but the State is able to offer special benefits that overcome this impossibility, providing benefits that eliminate all costs, guaranteeing much greater accessibility and opportunities for the low-income population.
