There's more to this, think it through. When a person gets pulled over, the cop calls the license in for warrants. Even if they put a picture of the user of a fake license on an otherwise legit license, it still won't link to the car they would be driving.

Getting by with this scam would require a lot of luck even if they could print the fake licenses.

Not necessarily. If he was smart enough to get the numbers right and got the card encoding right, the system *could* react as if it was a recently made one not yet input into the system. Several states’ systems have this problem.

Even better would be to steal the materials from one state and then move across the country. Not all states have fully operable interconnections on DLs, believe it or not.

As to which states???? Eh. Loose lips and all that.

Who says the purchasers of the fake licenses would use them for driving? My understanding is that there's quite the black market in fake IDs for undeage drinkers.
