I was reading this article on Yahoo about a muslim woman refusing to take her veil off for her drivers license, and it just started the wheels turning. As I look down at my Drivers license and CCL, I personally feel that a picture is needed. Example: how do the police know it's her at a traffic stop? What if she is OK'd for the drivers license, and then wants a CCL? What if I didn't have a picture on mine, lost them, and then someone else started using them?
It just brings up questions of public safety vs. a national picture ID registry. Are our pictures absolutely necessary on all of the ID we have. We don't have a picture on our Social Security Card, but then that is not license to operate something, like a vehicle, or to carry a handgun. What is she wants to buy tabacco or alcohol? How would you know it's her?
Anyway, I thought I'd throw this out there.
