As a twenty-something, I've never heard of anyone selling or giving away an expired ID, as nobody will take it. Instead, you go to DMV and say you lost your ID

As a twenty-something, I've never heard of anyone selling or giving away an expired ID, as nobody will take it. Instead, you go to DMV and say you lost your ID – they'll charge you $X, and you sell the original for $X+P (where P is your profit margin).
> You can't trust an expired license because it implies there's one which _isn't_ expired.
This is also untrue. Just because my ID has expired doesn't mean that I've already gone through the steps to get a new ID. An expired ID means that the ID has expired; nothing more, nothing less.
- itsdevlin 12y agoCan confirm. Did this all through college. Speaking of 'things that should be tracked' - I'm blown away that it didn't raise any red flags when I 'lost' ~50 Drivers Licenses over the course of a year or two.
- randyrand 12y agoDo you really not care about people running around with your identity? Also, I call shenanigans!
- zacwest 12y agoAt least where I grew up, nobody cared about expired licenses. Many of my friends used their sibling's or friend's old IDs to buy alcohol or cigarettes, despite the expiration. Perhaps this practice lead to people checking expiration.
