Should the old driver's license be destroyed?

When renewing the license, the old one must be submitted to obtain the new one. The process for renewing a new license: To renew the new version of the driver's license, citizens should bring two copies of their ID card, two 1-inch color passport photos, the original ID card, the original driver's license, and a medical examination certificate from a county-level or above hospital (free medical examinations are also available at the vehicle management office) to the vehicle management office. After filling out the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Application Form," the license can be renewed for free. Definition of a driver's license: The full name of the driver's license is the motor vehicle driver's license, also known as a driving license. It is a required legal document for motor vehicle drivers. Driving a motor vehicle requires certain driving skills. Without these skills, driving a motor vehicle recklessly may lead to traffic accidents. Generally, individuals cannot drive on the road without a license. However, for those who have mastered safe driving skills, the document that permits them to drive on the road is the driver's license.
As a veteran driver with over 20 years of experience, I strongly recommend that old driver's licenses must be destroyed. The license contains your ID number, home address, and photo - it's too dangerous to simply throw away. Last time in our neighborhood, someone sold old books with their expired license tucked inside, and criminals used it to apply for loans. Every time I get a new license, I use scissors to cut the photo in half vertically and shred the barcode area into confetti. But now with digital licenses becoming widespread, it's actually safer to scan and archive them before shredding the physical copy.
