    Was at the DMV in ohio.
    July starts some new high security drivers license required for air travel.
    Extra documentation required,birth certificate,residency proof etc.
    Will not receive hard copy at DMV.
    They will give you papers to drive on and mail license to your home address.

    Florida stared that about 10 yrs ago. You get this little star and some security feature that's supposed to show you proved who you are.

    Still worthless because no one else recognizes it. You still need proof of residence and other BS to renew the registration for your truck.

    Useless.

    Utah has never given hard copy. Only paper. And wait for mail.

    The new security thing has been a couple years in the works. It was talked about as a possibility on the road dog channel some time back.

    Great. Yet another level of ‘security ‘ .

    If I had a dollar for every time I’d been photographed, fingerprinted, and background checked in the last 14 years . . .

    I’d have about $30.

    I sometimes haul jet fuel to Eglin Air Force base. They stopped accepting TWIC cards sometime ago. To much corruption.
    They just do a background check on your license to gain entry.
