I'm curious to know more about this. I like this law and wish other states had the same. I know for a fact that this is not the case in Louisiana as I found out the hard way.

Mostly, I know this.

By the way, you know its the same information that's on the face of the license, right? There is nothing restricting somebody from copying that information, or even photocopying the license itself, they just can't collect the information electronically.

I don't like this law. It prevents CHL instructors from swiping the drivers license of students, and requires they manually enter full name and drivers license number onto the paperwork. A time-consuming, error-prone process -- rather than a simple DL swipe. It is NOT protecting any information, it is just restricting the method used to collected it.

Flash memory is pretty inexpensive, that's easy enough to fix.

I think the reference is to the engraved metal bracelet style.

Don't let them swipe your drivers license in Texas. Thats a misdemeanor.

And where was this?
