New
York is pioneering a reportedly “unforgeable” driver’s license. The new
driver’s license will be engraved with a ghost image that floats in a
transparent window. The state of Virginia introduced a similar card in 2009.
This initiative is another step in the crackdown on illegal and
undocumented aliens. Since driver’s licenses are a primary form of ID, reducing
or eliminating forged licenses will significantly impact fraud, identity theft
and illegal employment.
