Which state has the ugliest drivers licenses??

[SmileyBoy]

I'll have to say Minnesota. They look more like a tax form than a drivers license.



I have a Minnesota license BTW, and I can't WAIT to get my North Dakota one.

1. This is what I'll be upgrading to.

[progmom]

15. Wow.

That's quite an upgrade. How much electrolysis did it take to get rid of all that facial hair?

[KitchenWitch]

2. Minnesota definitely

They have had ugly D/Ls for years...The dark green ones for under 21 are really ugly.

[SmileyBoy]

3. Remember the older maroon ones with the raised numbers/letters??

The ones that looked like a shitty credit card?? Those were the WORST.

[KitchenWitch]

7. no doubt

those were terrible...the state's graphic designer lacks an eye for color and design.

4. florida uses the traffic light system

red for ID cards, yellow for learners and green for full licenses

[SmileyBoy]

5. But I'm sure the design is decent.

Actually, I think I remember seeing a Florida license. When I was the assistant manager of a convenience store, I used to have to card lots of people for smokes and such.

6. heres a pic

thats an ID card on the left

[Misunderestimator]

30. self-delete

On edit... never mind... I looked at the dates and they don't make sense, says it was issued in 2007 and expires in 2004... so I guess it's a sample... back to work for me...

9. let me tell you

here (ohio) those with fake I.D.s LOVE florida...they say it's really easy to fake :shrug:

11. and they are

the holograms on them are simplistic, too, most bars have readers tho for the magnetic strips on back, and those are dificult to fake

[tjwmason]

18. You mean bars check I.D. with a magnetic reader before serving drinks?

Thank goodness I live in England.

I've never had I.D. checked for buying booze (fortunate as we don't tend to carry any with us).

The best one was the Students' Assocation bar, you had to have a university I.D. card to get in to the building and yet the bar-staff never asked for any I.D. despite the fact that in the Scottish system some people go to university at 17 (drinking age is 18).

[7th_Sephiroth]

29. not everyone

if you look old enough they wont even bother to check

[sasquatch]

8. The old under 21 Ohio Drivers licenses were the worst

They took a picture of the side of your head like a prison photo.

[realisticphish]

12. now they suck again

for a while they were just like the 21+ ones, but said under 21. now, they have this stupid-ass vertical format

10. Maine isn't too bad

That's just a sample from their website.

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

20. That's funny... I thought you were cross-dressing again!

When I was stationed in Maine, the D/L's were paper, and the vehicle regs were hand-written.

[qnr]

25. heheh, I deleted the comment about not having had a sex change

operation.

[BurtWorm]

26. You weren't stationed in Brunswick by any chance...

At the Naval Air Station?

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

31. Nope. Bangor. Went to NASB pretty often

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

28. Yeah.. I liked the new Maine licenses.

I only had my new one for a few months before I moved to a different state.

[last_texas_dem]

13. The Minnesota license

looks like my college ID; right colors and everything. Kinda funny...

The TX ones are actually not too bad; pretty basic... I'll look for a picture.

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

14. Here's PA

Has a hologram of all the PA counties running through it. Not too bad, I think.

[LynneSin]

16. I wondered where David F. Sample moved to

he owes me money!!!

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

17. Living with the groundhog!

Glad you found him! ;-)

[pres2032]

27. aw, no fair! i want a horizontal license!

mine's vertical!

[Lavender Brown]

19. New York is the prettiest - it's pink

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

23. Took a minute... but here is one...

found a better one

[Left Is Write]

21. Funny. I can't wait to get back to having a Minnesota one.

My Idaho license is pretty okay. Not great, not ugly.

(I was so reluctant to give up my Minnesota license after I moved here that I, er...kept it for two years. Don't tell on me.)

[XNASA]

22. Illinois now has two types of Driver's Licenses...

Standard

And the new "Under 21" license which will be 'vertical'. Sorry, couldn't find an image.

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

24. Ohio's is pretty weird... looks like the dog chewed it on the bottom

[KamaAina]

32. Ours have rainbows on 'em!

So do our license plates, come to think.

Our state ID cards, on the other hand, have NO rainbows. Why should we non-drivers be rainbow-deprived?

Edit: I used to go out with Polaroid Driver back before that creep Sample from the used-car lot swept her off her feet :-)
