I think this is pretty cool. With everything computerized, I thought it was kind of annoying that we even have to have our license on us. I understand the logistics of why - and that you sometimes need it for other reasons besides a police stopping you. But, it is rather inconvenient…
I always wondered for years why some other alternative couldn’t be done. So, this would be cool. BUt, it’s STILL something ya gotta carry with ya
What do ya’ll think?

Could be useful. Some day it’ll be embedded on a chip in the brain - even more convenient. But yeah, it would be great to one day leave the wallet at home.

With any luck this will be implemented and as a result, no more trips to the DMV

When I was a teen, before I had credit cards - I used to leave my license in the car - otherwise I would leave and forget it at home. But, if the police can run your name and see you that you have a DL, I always wished there was another way than always having the actual, physical license on you.
In the state I grew up in, you would get a ticket for not having the actual, physical license. Here in TX though - as long as they can verify it in the computer, you usually do not get cited for that from the police. But, I still do not do it. I always keep it with me.
A chip in your arm or brain would be cool, as you suggest. But then they’d be tracking you everywhere

Does anyone else have their drivers license ID memorized? My friend recited his to a cop once, impressed the cop enough to get off with a warning!

Mine is easy, so it didn’t take long to memorize it.
I have mine memorized because I have to write it down on the form every time I go to the shooting range. So yes, I know mine
