How do you obtain your drivers license number?

I'd say simply by looking at your driver's licence, but I'm going to assume you've lost it. You can get it by contacting the Department of Motor Vehicles for your state. One way (although it may not the simplest way) is to get a copy of your driving record (MVR), which will show your licence number on it. If you have a current insurance policy, you should be able to contact your insurance provider and get it from them, as well.

Can you vote if you don't have your current address on your drivers license?

Can you get a car loan without a drivers license?

YES you can own a car without having a driver's license. Now to drive it and get it properly registered, that's another story

AnswerIn some states you are able to register a car without having a valid driver's license. However, insurance companies will not insure the vehicle without special provisions included in the policy. For example, if the owner is disabled and another person will be driving the vehicle for them, that person will need to be on the insurance policy. AnswerHere in Texas, you can register a vehicle without having ever applied for a Texas driver's license. It's totally ridiculous. The state basically tells you to get insurance coverage, register your vehicle THEN go and appy for a driver's license.

Direct from TSA's website...

Adult passengers (18 and over) are required to show a U.S. federal or state-issued photo ID in order to be allowed to go through the checkpoint and onto their flight.

We understand passengers occasionally arrive at the airport without an ID, due to lost items or inadvertently leaving them at home. Not having an ID, does not necessarily mean a passenger won't be allowed to fly. If passengers are willing to provide additional information, we have other means of substantiating someone's identity, like using publicly available databases.

Passengers who are cleared through this process may be subject to additional screening. Passengers whose identity cannot be verified by TSA may not be allowed to enter the screening checkpoint or onto an airplane.

What is a cancelled drivers license?

Surrendering your driving licence is something that no driver wishes to do but unfortunately - given certain circumstances - it becomes necessary in the eyes of the law.

Why do I have to Surrender my Driving Licence?

You will have to surrender your driving licence if you have received a driving ban (otherwise known as a disqualification). If you receive a driving ban you will have done so because you have either: (a) exceeded the maximum number of penalty points or (b): been disqualified for a serious motoring offence.

You will be required by law to surrender your driving licence to the court or to the DVLA (Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency) and failure to do so constitutes a criminal offence in itself

The DVLA (Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency) and the courts require your driver's licence is surrendered to them so that you may not drive whilst disqualified. However it is not unknown for individuals to break the law further after having been disqualified by driving without a licence. This is in itself a serious criminal offence and can be punished by either issuing a further disqualification notice (added to your original ban) or by handing down a custodial sentence if the magistrate feels there is a danger of the individual committing the offence again.

Surrendering your Licence for Legal Reasons

As we have already touched upon you may be required to give up your driver's licence if you have broken the law by means of motoring offences or if you have exceeded the maximum number of penalty points that can awarded on any one driving licence.

The maximum number of points any one individual can have on their licence is twelve, after which an automatic disqualification is issued. Failure to relinquish your licence after such a ban is a criminal offence.

Surrendering your Licence on Medical Grounds

It may become necessary to surrender your driving licence on the basis of ill health and it is better to do so rather than risk trying to drive if medically unfit to do so.

If your doctor informs you that because of ill health you should not be driving then you can voluntarily surrender your licence to the DVLA (Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency) who will then cancel your licence without the need to make enquiries of your medical history from your GP.

Failure to surrender your licence if you are unfit to drive may result in the DVLA (Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency) revoking your licence if such enquiries are made and it is found that you have not declared them. Likewise criminal proceedings may be brought against you.

If you wish to surrender your licence on the basis of ill-health you can download the necessary form - VOC99 - from the DVLA (Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency) website or pick one up from a local post office. Completing this form and carrying out the surrender of your licence in the proper manner will also help with the reclamation of monies paid to your insurance company in advance of your policy but it is worth adding that you can only reclaim this from your insurance company if you have filled out all the relevant paperwork and your licence has been surrendered as opposed to revoked.

Re-Applying for your Licence

If your circumstances change and the bout of ill-health you have suffered has past then you may apply to have your licence reinstated. You can again do this through the DVLA (Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency) website or pick up the forms from your local post office.

Whilst re-applying for your licence you can legally drive on the roads once your application has been received by the DVLA. This can be done under section 88 of the Road Traffic Act 1988.

However there are some exceptions to this: you must not have been disqualified from driving when your licence was surrendered, your licence must not have been revoked for failure to declare a medical condition and you must have held a full driving licence in the United Kingdom on or after 1st January 1976.
