How often do drivers need to renew their drivers license?

  1. Every 6 years

  2. Every 3 years

  3. Every 8 years

  4. Every 2 years

The correct answer is: Every 3 years

Drivers typically need to renew their drivers license every 3 years. Option A is incorrect because 6 years is too long of a time period between renewals. This would mean that a driver's information and skills would not be updated for a longer period of time, potentially leading to unsafe driving practices. Option C is also incorrect because 8 years is an even longer time period between renewals. Option D is also incorrect because 2 years is too short of a time period between renewals and would require more frequent visits and fees.
