Manitoba Public Insurance is cutting some slack to drivers that has licences and registrations that were set to expire between mid-November and January.
Due to the postal strike, they say customers won't receive their annual statements for their driver's licence, vehicle registration and insurance "until mail service stabilizes."
Because of that, people whose licences, vehicle registration and insurance that was set to expire on or after Nov. 15 but before Feb. 1 will get extensions to February 28th.
The extension is intended to protect customers from the possibility of unknowingly driving with an expired licence or insurance.
However, MPI still encourages drivers to keep track of their renewal dates and plan to make their payments on time.
Those payments are due four months after the licence holder's birthday.
