The driver’s licences of all Victorians will be uploaded to a national facial recognition database, in what lawyers have warned could lead to privacy and security breaches.

The state government has already uploaded the information to a digital platform, and it is expected to be transferred on to the National Driver Licence Facial Recognition Solution in the next three months.

VicRoads and Victoria Police will be the initial two agencies to get access to the database to help them target frauds who create fake documents or multiple licences.

The Andrews Labor government will upload the driver's licence of all Victorians on a database.

The new system is part of a national plan by Peter Dutton’s Home Affairs department to share the driver’s licences of Australians with federal authorities and private companies to combat identity fraud, organised crime and terrorism-related activities.
