Section 89 - Cooperative document production capability1.Purpose. State motor vehicle operators' licenses and identification documents have an increasingly important role in our society. They serve not only to identify persons who have received permission to undertake a specific regulated activity, but also serve as identification in numerous public and private transactions. It is becoming vitally important to insure that state motor vehicle operators' licenses be issued in a form that clearly identifies them as official state documents, that they positively and easily identify the holder and that they are extremely difficult to counterfeit or alter.
