- ChuckMcM 10y agoI suppose this depends on the state. California driver's license numbers don't change, even if you move away, get a different one, then come back years later and get one back in California.
- xanderstrike 10y agoYeah but while you're in a different state your "current driver's license" is the one from that state. Effectively it changes when you move, and changes again when you go back.
- ChuckMcM 10y agoTrue, it changes back to the old number when you go back. But as you move from state to state your DL# will change as well.
- wtbob 10y agoThe Congress could use its constitutional authority over weights & measures to prescribe a national system of ID numbers, administered by the states, with assignment at birth.
