In practice the police just look it up when you don't have it, same with insurance. If you are unpleasant or the cop had a bad day they might write you a fine but I've never heard of that happening.
They look your license up anyway when they get to their car to validate it isn't revoked.
- Spivak 5y agoI just make sure to have a picture of my license on my phone (which I realize in this specific situation wouldn’t help but who doesn’t have a charger in their car?) so the officer can just type in my license number and it’s never been an issue.
- smordistan 5y agoThat is not actually how it works in practice if you do not have your license. That is your personal anecdote.
