3 days agoMy state didn’t start offering them until 2018, and our IDs are good for 5 years. Also, our DVS was a complete shitshow at the time with regular licenses taking up to 6 months to arrive, and double that for a real id. People avoided them so they wouldn’t have to renew a temporary license every 3 months.
Realistically, people in my state have had an average of one opportunity to get a real id on renewal.
A state ID with stricter vetting. They’re needed for access to some government facilities, commercial flights, and nuclear power plants. If you never fly, you don’t really need one.
