Some hotels aready take your DL number and put it in their system. I wonder if this effort is already under way and the government is not telling us.
OK, I got my tinfoil hat on and I got a pair of binoculars ready to scan the sky for black helicopters.

Already here. Try driving along I-8 and I-10 in CA, AZ, NM, and TX. I was once told in no uncertain terms by a CBP goon that if I don't have my passport with me, I could be subject to indefinite detention until my status is verified. "Papiere bitte!"
