Fake drivers license?
Was just interested, but how is it that you can get any type of license you want, including a press ID, but you cant get a fake drivers license?

proberbly because some sort of ID number is placed on the DVLA's system, which is unique to each holder, so if the police check the details they know who it belongs to.

Re: Fake drivers license?
I meant for it to be used as age verification, where the number wouldnt come into play.

Re: Fake drivers license?
Press ID isn't a license and isn't a legally-binding document like a driver's license, which is a government document anyway.

Re: Fake drivers license?
Why get a fake one, get a real one.

"Just interested" eh...?!
I think what it is, is that it's a criminal offence to forge an official document like a driving licence, passport etc.

But the number does contain your age. It's the first 5 letters of your last name, then your birthday in a YMMDDY format, then up to 3 initials and 2 random. A police officer or other can also tell from the number if the holder is male or female.

Probably becasue if you are caught with a fake offical document you would be for the high jump so to speak, where as if you have a fake 'Prove it card' noone could really care less

You CAN get fake driving licenses, you just need to know who to get them from, and don't ask me, because I'm not going to tell you.

Not random, but check digits that verify the rest of the licence number (bit like the last digit of a credit card number being a check digit to ensure it is keyed properly). I'm told the code to create the drivers licence check digits has yet to be cracked.
