Car driver licence renewal is Hell

Centurion traffic department is the utter pits. In December 2023 I started on my efforts to renew my driver's licence and have visited them 6 six times because either it was not pensioner's application day, or their system crashed, or power shedding, or there was a mess-up with my fingerprints, or they cannot find the new card. The indolence with which staff treat their responsibilities is frightening and you are told to "wait outside" not being told what and when anything is likely to happen. Who cares when their job is not on the line? Today in May I am still having to show payment receipt with my expired card to cops who stop me on the road for routine checks, and they find this a convenient reason to give me a bad time to add to the insult
