  1. Photo copy your license both sides, blackout your address. Cut down the photocopy and laminate copy.

    Hand this to them.

    Unless they have a badge, don't give your license to anyone.

    Had a truck stop, Gateway by Longview Tx, demand my license or my truck key in exchange for a shower room key. I pitched a small fit and told em I'm not giving em my license. Gave em a spare truck key under protest.
    The one down in Carthage never did that.

    Never been exposed to that policy, even delivering to a nuclear power plant with their over the top security requirements.
    Everything on your drivers license is public record, anyone for a fee can get it.
    If you are not comfortable with the practice, decline the load.
     
    Rideandrepair Thanks this.
