The pilot run of the new mobile driver licence will allow the state to find out the issues that using a smartphone app as a driving licence will bring up. As such, those issues can be ironed out before the app is made available for use by the public. Here is a screenshot of what the driving licence looks like:
Features Of The Mobile Driver Licence App
Features of the mDL app will include:
Enhanced privacy for age verification – no need to show a person’s address, licence number and birthdate, the mDL will verify if the person is over 18 or 21 and display a photo.Law enforcement use during a traffic stop – the mDL will allow law enforcement officers to ping a driver’s smartphone to request their driving licence information prior to walking to the vehicle.Business acceptance – understanding how businesses that require identification or age verification interact with the mDL will be advantageous throughout pilot.Ease of Use – ensuring the mDL is able to be presented to any organization without difficulty.Secure access – the mDL is only unlocked and accessible by the mDL holder. The mDL is accessed through an app on the owner’s smartphone and is opened/unlocked by entering a user-created PIN number or using facial recognition.
