And that's one of the issues causing the problem here.
For example, I'm carrying a California driver's license that has a 10 year old photo.
At the time the photo was taken, I looked somewhat like Brad Pitt....or so I'm told.
Now, 10 years later, I look more like Danny DeVito.
So even though my CA DL is valid, the picture is so outdated as to be useless.
