[CARFREE_CITIES] identity and cars

[Debra Efroymson [e-mail] [CARFREE_CITIES]]

With a growing number of young people supposedly rejecting cars, why is it that the place to obtain the de facto form of government i.d. in the US is still the Department of Motor Vehicles? And when asking for i.d., people always ask for your driver's license? Our citizenship is subsumed under our car use??

And if anyone knows a way of getting a government i.d. without having to go to the DMV, I'd love to hear it. When I searched on the web it says "or alternatives" but I can't figure out what the alternatives are. I have a passport, but I'd like an i.d. that fits in my wallet and it angers me that I am supposed to go to a DMV to get one!

In Ontario,Canada we have an alternative ID called Ontario Photo Card

I believe the other provinces have similar card systems

Well, in California we have a "California ID," but you get it from the DMV. It’s just a drivers license without the endorsements.

If we didn't have much bigger battles to fight right now, I'd want to fight this one. I realize I can get an i.d. that's not a driver's license, but NYC is the only place I've heard that I don't have to go to DMV to get it. I just feel that this system says something deep-rooted and sick (in the car-dependent sense) about American society.
On the bright side, I'm having lots of fun in Bangladesh convincing Bangladeshis, and university students from other countries, about how great carfree cities would be...

And where do you get it? We have an alternative i.d. in the US too, but we still have to go through the Department of Motor Vehicles to get it.
