Kenya's Cabinet has approved the implementation of new second-generation smart driving licenses, aiming to modernize the country's transport system and improve road safety. This initiative will be rolled out through a public-private partnership.

• The new licenses will integrate with an instant fine system, mobile license wallet, and driver merit and demerit points.
• The project was approved on Monday, December 15.
• These chip-based cards will store driver's data, history, and facilitate digital payments.
