[Blindtlk] Picture ID's.

[Mike Freeman]

Gee! You must not have received a parcel via UPS lately! The drivers always
have one of those electronic signature tablets. I just put a signature guide
on it and sign away!

In Maryland, our ID is given to us, before leaving the MVA office.I think
drivers get sent a reminder in the mail. I have never recieved such
mail.However, it is very interesting reading these e-mails on this list. I
have not seen that electronic device Lloyde, mentioned earlier.  Barbara  >
