No doubt in the name of cost saving. Hiw much does it cost in advertising and rebranding

That’s a really poor name… doesn’t even spell anything - I think it should be called: Driver and Vehicle Executive (DAVE).

the galaxys still have VOSA on the side though?

At first glance at that I just read DIVS

I was just gonna ask …How long do you reckon until we stop referring to them as ‘VOSA’ - bearing in mind that we used to call them ‘the Ministry’ for ages after VOSA was formed. Also VOSA seems a bit easier to say than ‘DVSA’, so I think it may take a while■■?

Any chance of getting an"I" inserted between the D and the V?
