Where do you keep your driving license?

[amarone]

When I lived in the UK (my home country), I kept my licence at home in a drawer. As I only ever had to produce it twice, as I recall (one ticket, one “not guilty”), it was certainly not worth taking up wallet space. I don’t believe I was ever asked for ID during the 35 years I lived in England. And even had I been, my driver’s licence would have been pretty useless as it has no picture on it.

In the US, I carry it in my wallet as I have to show it endlessly to prove I am not one of those rare underage drinkers who happens to look to be in his mid-forties (plus for my four tickets in the US - the cops here are so keen. And the speed limits so low).

Yeah, but the Brits have those really cool sirens. Almost worth getting a ticket.
wee ooo wee ooo wee ooo
Haha! I’ve heard that some places in the US have them, but I don’t know if it’s true or not.
Peace,

Thanks (also to SmackFu and Curly Chick) for confirming this. I do wish they would get a credit card sized one as it certainly doesn’t fit my “ladylike” purse.

No problem. However, if they did make it credit card sized, I’d have to go on another search for an even larger purse cos they never make women’s purses with enough credit card slots… what with credit and laser cards, clubcards for shopping points, video shop cards etc… my purse can barely hold money!!! (Not that thats a problem I suppose, hardly any of that in there )

:rolleyes: I’m fully aware of that, thank you - I mentioned the British shift to card licences as “part of EU standardisation”, in case you didn’t notice.

Sorry - I noticed after that you were in the UK… its often a mistake that’s made and it annoys me, thats all.

Apologies.
