The goal was to require them to get through security at places like airports, being accepted where a regular drivers license was not. The RealID act is requiring the enhanced ID's for accessing federal facilities, boarding federally regulated commercial aircraft, and entering nuclear power plants.
And CT licenses that aren't "enhanced" have something like "NOT VALID AS FEDERAL ID" emblazoned across them. I wonder how often this trips up TSA TDCs or leads to non-acceptance at the checkpoint.
