A driver's license is perhaps the "most requested" and "most popular" license of all time.
Almost the entire adult population ends up with one. A driver's license not only allows
one to operator a vehicle, but it also serves as a primary form of identification, in which
photos are updated regularly. Testing is usually a one time event unless the driver
gets a marked driving record with too many violations. Licensing for most states is through
the State Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or equivalent.
A driver's license is for a set term and must be renewed according to the state's requirement.
In many states driver's licenses are issued to applicants as young as age 15. A driver's license
should not be confused with a vehicle registration, which documents the vehicle identification number
(VIN) that every automaker must provide. A vehicle registration also must be periodically renewed.
Driving without a license or on a suspended license can create nightmares with the law.
Just look at what happened to Paris Hilton.
