What does show them your papers mean? Is a driver's license enough, what else would you carry? What if you don't own a car? I don't understand how this law would even work.
Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

Theoretically, you can get a non driver's ID. Although I don't think that anyone should have to pay for that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Do you need to be a citizen to get a driver's license?

Eva Longoria is one of those Texans who were originally Spanish, then Mexican, then American. They did her genealogy on the recent PBS show with Skip Gates, and found ancestors settling on the land where she grew up in the 1500s.
I think Queen Noor was also descended from Charlemagne. No wonder she is a badass.

Everyone that I know who doesn't have a driver's license has gotten a non-driver's ID, but that's mostly because most of my friends are in their mid-twenties and still likely to get carded for alcohol.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
They were doing a story about this on NPR last night and some dude who loves this law kept saying, "This country was founded on laws and the obeying of those laws" or something. At which point I yelled, "No. This country was founded on ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. So shut it yokel."

No. In most states, if you're not a citizen, you need to show your visa, but you don't need to be a citizen.

HA! illegals can get those!
certificate of citizenship. I am getting one for mac, because a passport is not always enough to get people to BACK THE FUCK OFF. Ahem. His permenant residence card is what we use now.
So sure, those people born and raised here who have the gaul to have non-white skin, they best start acting like the immigrants they are in their hearts and learn about these awesome registration cards I mean revenue streams I mean terrorism deterants issued by Homeland Security once you can PROVE you're 'merican.

You do not need to be a citizen to get a driver's license. If I understand the law correctly, you would need a birth certificate, passport, or naturalization papers/green card/etc.

One of our old cars has returned. We sold it (at a low price) to my FIL years ago. Now my FIL has bought a truck (yay, we know someone we can borrow a truck from!) and they are keeping the car at our house until we decide what to do with it. They proposed giving it to us, but we negotiated to half book value (about $500-750). It wouldn't cost much to insure and it's mechanically sound, but we don't really need it.
OTOH, the kids are getting too big for my little Civic hatchback (which would become a commuting-only car) and if it went down, we wouldn't have to buy a replacement. It's a good problem to have, but it's turning into a tough decision.
