You don't necessarily have to have been operating a vehicle. Your drivers license is a valid form of identification and should reflect your accurate name, DOB and address. He was probably checking for warrants. You say that you weren't obvserved doing anything illegal, but you don't really know what drew the officer's attention to you. There can be any number of reasons he 'contacted' you - similarity of appearance or your clothing to a recent offense - presence in a known high criminal-activity area -etc.
In most cases, an officer cannot run your driver's license without a valid reason such as a traffic offense or reasonable suspicion of illegal activity. However, laws and regulations vary by jurisdiction, so it's best to consult the specific laws in your area.

I just spoke to a police officer and he said that it is not illegal to text or talk on a cell phone while driving YET. They are trying to pass it as a law. A law was recently past that it is illegal to drive and text under the age of 21yrs. in the state of MO. Now you can and probably will be found guilty if you are on the phone talking and are involved in an accident.
