I get the point of that, but doesn't that make it easy to "fake" a temp one because the temporary ones are really just printed on a poor inkjet printer?

- superuser2 10y agoThe piece of paper they give you at the DMV will work in a traffic stop, and maybe for voting (not doing so is a civil rights lawsuit waiting to happen) but is unlikely to be accepted anywhere else. Most organizations would rather see your slightly expired card, demand a second factor, or just refuse service rather than trust a piece of printer paper. You're definitely not getting into a bar with a temporary ID if you look plausibly underage, or the kids would be doing that already.
- Jemmeh 10y agoI had two recently (renewed, then moved states). I've been able to use my temp ID at several bars & also to redeem tickets at an event. Sometimes they looked a little unsure for a moment, but they shrugged and went on with it.
