California residents can now upload their driver's license to their smartphone and take part in the state's Mobile Driver's License pilot program, the CA DMV announced.
As of right now, the California mDL is only being accepted at selected international airports, including San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Jose, and 26 other airports in the country. Selected businesses that use TrueAge identification to verify their customers' ages are also able to use the mDL.
According to the DMV, the mDL offers a quick and secure identity confirmation at select airport checkpoints and a verifiable credential that can be used to buy age-restricted products at participating retail locations without sharing personal information." The mDL in the California DMV Wallet is secured through the use of biometrics and encryption, and meets the highest federal and international security standards, making it harder for unauthorized individuals to access or steal the mDL, Gore added.Get Los Angeles's latest local news on crime, entertainment, weather, schools, COVID, cost of living and more.
