DPS using DL for CHL Pics

#1

Post by Whatthaduece »

my wife just got her CHL in yesterday :anamatedbanana but they used her DL pic instead of the pics we took for the CHL packet. let me just say my wife is not pleased since she hates that pic and she wanted the new one :mad5

I heard the DPS was going to start using the DL...so i gues it has happened!

Should make counterfitting that much harder with the pics from both IDs matching.
I can see how the ladies may not care for it.

I think it would be less work to counterfeit using the same picture.

"I think it would be less work to counterfeit using the same picture."

You might be right. I thought it might be easier to insert your own bad hair pic vs duplicating exactly the pic which will be in the officers left hand.
But, I definately submit if you may have more experience in theses matters than I do. "rlol"

This lady is hoping that if/when she gets hers theyll use the DL picture: around 5 years younger and about 20lbs lighter. :lol:

Looks like there is no set rule on which picture they use.

See also this similar thread that is still running: viewtopic.php?f=53&t=56415&p=697407#p697407" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It is on another page which you may not have seen.

"Gun control is like trying to reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars."
1)Treat firearms as if they are loaded. 2)Point the muzzle away from non-targets.
3)Keep fingers off the trigger until ready to shoot. 4)Be sure of your target and backstop.
