    So they can make a copy of it and pass it off to a Chilean crime crew so they can open up some lines of credit, transfer the deed of house etc.

    Fake license isn't real. Keep it in a safe location to use when some employee at the fuel desk wants to hold it while you're fueling.

    And worth every penny, it’s the biggest pain there is dealing with a lost wallet, bank cards, credit cards, DL, insurance cards etc. I’d be buying that guy a steak dinner on top of that as it’s rare for someone to be that honest these days.

    Most are because they shut off the pumps from being able to take cards outside. You cannot even turn the pump on without walking in to give them a fuel card. Now if using a regular credit card they normally don't care and let you use that. It is the ones that require all the driver information.

    I lost my license recently, due to clumsiness and not paying attention, and it was not found yet. There were times before, when someone would pick it up and mail it back to you, but no luck this time. I replaced it with a real id cdl, the next day, which made the old one invalid but it still worries me that it might be in the hands of someone with ideas.
     
    silverspur and Sirscrapntruckalot Thank this.

    Mudflap. You have to go in twice, first time to give them your code. . It's annoying but good discounts.
