federal ID documents and Consular ID cards that are used as personal identification.

Checking Driver's Licenses

Let the J.D. Checking Guide be your first line of defense when checking the details of a driver's license or ID card. Here are some key elements to compare:

• Does the card's appearance (color, style, design, and special symbols) match what you see in the Guide? A card in a different style may be outdated or counterfeit.

• If examining a Commercial Driver's License (CDL) or minor's license, does it match the Guide's description? For exam­ple, many minor's licenses are in vertical ("sideways") format, and some CDLs have a different color headbar.

• Do the card material and laminate match what is described in the Guide?

• Are there signs of tampering? If the photo­graph is altered, for instance, the forger may apply an unauthorized lamination over it, omitting a state seal or other key feature.

COL: Commercial Driver's License.

Current License: License that is being issued by the licensing agency.

Enhanced Driver's License (EDL): Provides proof of identity and citizenship; serves as a passport alternative at certain U.S.land and sea borders.

Ghost/Secondary Image: A smaller, generally less clear copy of the holder's photo.

Head bar: The band across the top of some licens­es, usually color-coded by license type.

Hologram: 3D image that appears to change when viewed from different angles.

Kinegram: Security feature that shows different images depending on viewing angle.

Laminate: A plastic film on a license that may include security features.

Laser engraving: A process that adds photo­graphs , characters, and barcodes to driver's licenses and ID cards. Can be viewed from a certain angle and is discemable by touch. Chemical or mechanical removal of a laser engraving damages the card.

Microprinting: Text too small to be read with the naked eye.

• Does the license number follow the config­uration described in the Guide? Compare coded license numbers against the holder's birth date, name, and other personal data on the license to spot any inconsistencies.

• Does the expiration date follow the term and expiration rules shown in the Guide? (If the licensee is a member of the military, see Military Extension Policies on pp 94-95.)

• Examine UV and other security features . Use a backlight, flashlight, or magnifying glass for close inspection of microprinting or laser perforations. Make sure what you see on the license matches what is shown or described in the Guide.

Definition of Terms

Optical Variable Device/Ink (OVD/OVI): Security feature that changes color as card is tilted.

Photo Backdrop: The color behind the driver in a license photo.

Prior License: A previously issued license style that remains valid until the last of them expires or cannot be extended.

REAL ID Act: U.S. federal law mandating security standards for driver's licenses and ID cards.

Retroreflective: Surface on the laminate of a card that makes certain data beneath it view­able only with a special viewer and from cer­tain angles.

UV: Security image that reacts to ultraviolet light. See O symbol; see also pp 71-76.

Validation: Microprinting, holograms, UV inks, seals, and other security features that indicate a correctly issued license.

Vertical License: Document in "portrait" format, usually used for minor's licenses or for ID cards.
