Does anybody really want this? I do not want to carry my license in my phone and then need to hand my phone over to stranger and even worse a police officer while I sit in my car phoneless and he is doing who knows what with it.
These should, instead, be implemented by NFC. You tap their “reader” with your phone, never surrendering it, and they get your ID number just like a merchant gets your CC info for a charge. Their backend pulls up your record just as if they’d scanned the qr code on the back of your physical card. Or you can locally transmit a facsimile image to a promiscuous reader (airdrop/nearby share) you approve.
I don’t even get what the point is. No ID should be valid identification without some form of biometrics validation performed on the spot, each time, every time. Otherwise anybody can just steal your ID and go around pretending to be you.
If they’re counting on the phone being unlocked by biometrics that’s completely circumstantial since there may be no relation between the unlock biometrics and the id biometrics.
I’ll stick with a physical id, thanks
Uhh, why just in Arizona specifically?
You likely need a lot of cooperation with the agency issuing the driver’s license to provide a digital equivalent. That means going state by state.
