So its an argument about which third party you trust? Google or the DVLA? perhaps people trust google because they have to already. If you are running chrome and using gmail you are implicitly trusting them with your data. I agree that this is a bad way of picking a tehnology. I like the chip and pin approach; its a good solution. Perhaps banks should provide federated login. Do you trust them ? :)

It's about context. I trust my bank for banking. I would trust the DVLA to assert my identity where a directed assertion is required, and where I agree to it. I don't trust Google at all because an ad company has no business looking at my email, let alone asserting my identity to third parties. So technically I don't trust any third party. I trust some of them in varying degrees based on what I'm trying to do.
