Thought I might share this just for the heck of it. Just finally got my new license. Apparently their computer systems have a virus on them, and yet they continue to use them. I'm guessing thats just an excuse because they know they're behind. They've been saying that for almost 6 months now. But anyway, here is a pic of new license in case no one has seen it yet.



Its definitely not fool-proof, but they've improved. The first to come out with the new fakes are going to be rich real fast. Especially if they make them scannable. Seeing as there are now three ways to scan it.

Its a pretty standard card, but there are quite a few little watermarks. The date is embossed above the head on the picture, the State Of Texas emblem is stamped over the class, drivers license number, and DOB with fancy ink (as you can see), and there are three stars over the rest of the information. One thing many might not notice is the outlined texas on the front and back in the same spot. The one on the back, however, is reversed. You can't really see the one on the front very well, but eh.

[EDIT]
And if you're assuming the image is blurred, you're wrong. The license itself is quite foggy, but it seems like it was on purpose. Though, the image is kinda blurry.

Interesting license. Also, lulz @ "Eyes HAZ". It's good to know that Texas licenses inform that the owner haz eyez

Also, I take it you aren't proud of your license photo?

I loled irl.
No... its quite hideous. But that probably isn't news to many of you.

Also lol'ing IRL. It took me suprisingly long to figure out that you did not, in fact, photoshop the [eyes] item.

Indiana is making you show social security cards, proof of citizenship and birth certificate, in an attempt to stop identity theft.

...in order to get your Drivers' License, or for normal day-to-day activities?

I can't see the license

lol @ eyes HAZ; mine are eyes BRO.

Also my brother has a new license from NC; it's vertical instead of horizontal like the rest of the planet.



Haha I remember when I went to get my driving permit; They wanted me to have a transcript to prove I was in school (drop-outs can't have licenses until they're 1, SSN card, military ID, electric bill, birth certificate, a parent (she had a whole different set of ID to bring), and $35. I'm surprised I didn't get a security clearance after all of that

In Texas, with the new licenses, under 21 is vertical and 21+ is traditional horizontal
I believe that was the same with the old license design as well

I wasn't aware people in Texas were smart enough to operate motor vehicles.

They aren't...

Neither are people in Illinois. Apparently, a stop sign means keep going foreward unless you're over 60, then it means stop, sit there for ten minutes, then you can move again.

You can't complain about drivers until you are old enough to drive.

You should see what happens here as soon as a single snow flake falls on the roads

LOL at:
Eyes: HAZ

nice to know you haz eyes then.

You're a bit late on that one

As I Said.

That's not you.

LOL you're 23?

If he is 23 then I'm the pope. Its probably his older brothers or something like that...

And Svakk, that picture is way too small and blurry to prove anything.
