The confusion I have is that I understand the temporary paper CDL allows me to legally drive my car and Class A rigs, however it can't be used at an airport to fly.
The lady at motor vehicle office said I can keep my commercial learners permit because it hasn't expired.....for what? To learn to drive a commercial vehicle again?? To keep the ID holder properly stretched to correct dimensions for when my real CDL gets here in the mail??
The CLP can't be used for boarding an aircraft, at least that's what it seems like according to TSA list of acceptable identity documents.
The airplane ticket I speak of would have been this weekend to get me half way across the country for orientation at Melton on Monday, but now? It's looking like New Jersey is inhibiting my freedom of movement by preventing me from flying or even renting a car. I'm assuming greyhound would likewise want some id, but I'm hoping it won't come down to greyhound.
The TLDR question: did N.J. motor vehicles mistakenly think they needed to take my current, non-expired photo driver's license when they issued me the non photo, paper, not to be used for identification purposes, temporary class a CDL today?
Thanks a bunch to you guys and gals in the forums who I know will be able to shed some light on this, or least leave some well deserved Jersey bashing here! This state is the worst!
N.J. gave me Temp. CDL & took my driver's license

I flew to training with a paper CDL. Just show your hole punched license with it. Every CDL is real ID compliant

Yes, my apologies, you are correct. A state issued ID card for that soul purpose can not be carried while also having a driver's license. I was thinking more along the lines of what else can be used as identification here.
