Veterans Identifier on state Drivers License

Virginia does it. All that is required is a DD 214.

When I was in Florida I had it on my license. They made a copy of my DD214. Oklahoma doesn't offer it. I am guessing in the states that do offer that it makes it easier to use yo license for a veterans discount. I have also watched people get out of tickets for having a veteran license plate. My ex had a cop come after him. Once he saw the plate he turned around and left. He also got out of 2 additional tickets on the trip from Oklahoma to Michigan. It can be good and bad. In my case, my ex deserved a ticket for speeding.

New York State does

Michigan has a newly offered "Veteran" identifier as an option endorsement on Drivers Licenses. I was in the Secretary of State's office last week (our version of the DMV) to transfer a vehicle title and I thought I might as well get the endorsement, but I didn't have a hard copy of my DD 214 with me. I offered my VA Healthcare card as proof of Honorable service, but that through the clerk into tizzy. She checked with her supervisor as the number of people waiting grew.

I do keep a pdf copy of my DD 214 on my iPhone and I offered that, but the clerk and the supervisor insisted on researching whether or not my VA card was acceptable. In the end, they decided that it was. Since my DL wasn't up for renewal, I was charged $9.00 to renew it even though it wasn't due for renewal until 2/17. I paid my $9.00 even though I had read that there was to be no charge for the endorsement. I guess there wasn't they might argue, it was for the renewal, but by that time it was worth the nine bucks to be able to get out of there.

This is the first that I have heard of this - I do not believe that it is available in Washington State.... Interesting

Texas has Veteran added to the driver's license as well. Complete information may be found at the Texas Department of Public Safety website at http://www.txdps.state.tx.us/DriverLicense/vetServices.htm

Kentucky just started offering the placement of Veteran status on their driver's licenses recently, roughly within the past year or so, but apparently it's pretty simple to do: when you renew your license at the local Circuit Clerk's office, just submit a copy of your DD 214 and the "Veteran" status will appear on your license free of charge. Mine's up for renewal in the middle of November this year, so I'll be going through the process myself.

In VA you can get a separate Veteran ID to have, but it isn't on our DL. That may have changed, but for $5-10 you can have a Veteran ID.

ive got to say...at first glance I was all for it...but in the nefarious state that our State of the Union is...I'd say that one would be making them-self an easy target - by identifying yourself...and your current status...as an able bodied - warrior - aka enemy of the state...IMHO - tantamount to registering a gun...

Virginia provides Veteran ID Card.
