- desert_rue 2y agoYeah when I lived in NYC, I came across a lot of people who didn’t have licenses but used other IDs from local government agencies.
- throw10920 2y agoInteresting! What other kinds of ID are there?
- tekknik 2y agoIn many states you can use a library card from a public library for ID in some instances.
- adrianmonk 2y agoIDs are used for many things other than driving, like: (1) buying alcohol / entering bars (2) flying (3) voting (in certain states) (4) a doctor's appointment (5) picking up a prescription (6) withdrawing cash at a bank (7) touring an apartment you might lease (for the leasing agents' safety) (8) returning items at a store if you don't have a receipt (as an anti-fraud measure)
- patch_cable 2y agoYes. Those are all excellent reasons to have an ID.
- tekknik 2y agoAnd reasons one might be required to already have one, since those are all common things.
