One of the implications of Dovster's point is that while the image may match, the rest of the physical credential can me made up or altered. This is why the flashing of ID cards does not imply proof of identification. And ID does not ensure security or safety.

Expiration of a license to operate a motor vehicle has nothing to do with the veracity of an individual's identity.
