Can you use a matricula consular to obtain a drivers license?

Some states (about 13) will issue a drivers license or "non-drivers license" to a resident with no legal immigration status. Many of these will accept a matricula consular as part of your identification, but I do not believe it is sufficient on its own.

Can you use a matricula consular to prove your identity when the local police ask you for ID?

If this is the only ID you have, then it is better than nothing. You should invest in a (foreign) passport, however, and try to obtain a copy of your birth certificate. These are much better forms of ID. The one advantage that the matricula consular has is that it shows the address of your US residence.

Is a matricula consular sufficient identification to obtain a marriage license?

Some counties/cities have set policies, but many do not. In general, it is up to the clerk issuing the marriage license to decide whether the ID presented is sufficient. Some clerks will require additional identification, such as a birth certificate. A foreign passport is better than a matricula consular, if you have both. Note that the presentation of identification is to prove identity only, not residency or citizenship. There is no residency or citizenship requirement to marry in any of the 50 states.
