Do I need a state photo ID if I already have a drivers liscense?

I have a military id do I still need a state drivers license?

  • Steak dinner riding on this can some one give me some state statutes or something to prove my buddy is crazy

  • Answer:

    The military ID will prove your identity and is legal to use so long as it has your birthdate and photo. However, in order to DRIVE legally, you need a driver's license. ID's and drivers licenses serve different purposes.

Yes you still need a drivers license. a military id doesn't give you the okay that you have passed a certain state's drivers test.

Military ID is not a license to drive. You must have a license issued by your home state or the one in which you are stationed in order to drive legally.

Everyone driving needs a driver's license no matter what kind of id they have.

Yes you do. Civilian police and police on base could care less about your military ID

I don't see how this works. You need a military drivers license to drive a military vehicle. Just having a military id is not good for driving either your own car or military vehicle as far as I know. Maybe you can get away with it. Seems like you guys in uniform show up and always get a free piece of pie at the local restaurant. We Vietnam vets got rocks and bottles thrown at us when we got off the plane.

If you plan on DRIVING, then yeah, you need a state driver's license. That's the law all over the country. If you want to know the laws of the state you live in, why don't you look up the statutes on the state web site? Most likely, if you don't plan on driving, you can just get a state ID card, which is technically not a license but still includes important information about you that is not on a military ID, such as your address. Some states do require by law that you keep identification with you at all times. But yeah, bottom line, if you don't drive AT ALL, you don't need a driver's license.

Yes. Insurance Companies do not recognize ID's as a legitimate driver's license. Also, don't know if the Highway Patrol would either ...
