I renewed my driving license last time by mail, so they used the old photo in their computer. Coming up to renewal time, the photo is now 20 years old. So much for the “security” of photo ID.
When I show my license to a bank teller to cash a check, if it looks like they have a sense of humor I sometimes joke as I hand them my license “Here is what I looked like 20 years ago.”
These days they request that passport photos be taken without eyeglasses. (I read it is so the photo can be more easily used by facial recognition software.) So many people look different from their PP photo in person wearing glasses. I have never been asked to take my glasses off so the agent could compare me better to the horrible low resolution photo in my passport.
