This is why I like it and why I use it at TSA. Also like KRSW noted there's no magstripe to use for less-than-honest intentions. My GE does have a barcode on the back (do they all?), but I've never been to a place that scanned them.

Also it seems like when I use my DL outside of Arizona people always have significant trouble finding the DOB (there's a lot of printed info on the front of it, plus the background image makes it difficult to read). I always have to tell them where to look.
