The only reason why I initially presented my LTC as ID was just because I was curious how the person at the table would respond. I assumed that they would take it without saying a word, and was somewhat surprised that they asked instead to see my DL.

Basically I had been standing there for 2 hours and debated whether to present my LTC or my DL and decided I wanted to see they would say/do when I used my LTC.

I also presented my LTC and was asked for my DL instead. The clerk asked if I had my DL with me, and requested to use that instead. I wasn't told that I had to use my DL or that they couldn't use my LTC, and I didn't ask any questions. Just kindly obliged.
