Last couple of trips have been pretty OK - however -
Went in to get ID's for my 2 sons (under 16) for various reasons -
Almost turned away because I wasn't carrying my OWN Birth Cert. - but I do have Secure ID - so i averted that.
My wife however, was unable to even renew her DL. Not regular or Secure ID - because her SS Card is in her MAIDEN name. Never been an issue in 23 years of marriage but to the BMV you'd think I had a trunk full of illegals...
We asked why she couldn't just do a regular renewal - not do the Secure ID and the "info desk" said they won't do ANYthing for her with an inaccurate Federal Document.
We came home and I renewed her DL online in about 2 minutes - and it came already.
I wonder if that was a case of random BS rule enforcement - could she have renewed her DL at the branch as normal.
And before the Tinfoil hats come out and tell me what a fool I am for Secure ID etc - that's a different thread.
