Why do you need a driver's license to buy liquor when you can't drink and drive?!


Question:

Why do you need a driver's license to buy liquor when you can't drink and drive?


Answers:
Because you are using it as an ID to prove that you are legally able to drink. You can also you your state id if you don't have a driver's license.

id to prove age

to verify your age!!! if you have any other type of ID, it is usually accepted as long as it is government issued and has your birthdate/age on it!

In the U.S., the legal drinking age is 21. A driver's license is the most common form of government identification that can verify your age as being 21 or over. Simply put, you need to prove you are 21 or older in order to purchase alcohol & a driver's license is USUALLY the easiest way to prove it. But hey... if you carry your birth certificate & your social security card around with you, feel free to whip them out.

You don't have to have a driver's license, you have to have a gov't or state issued picture identification. A driver's license is what most people have that are old enough to purchase alcohol.

you don't, dmv issued non driver id is acceptable form of proof of age, as is a passport, or military id.

you don't necessarily need a drivers license-there is such a thing as a state id-you just have to have something with a picture on it and your birthday

It's a government issued picture identification that proves your age. Places will also accept a passport (I don't recommend using it though) as well as a government issued picture ID card.

Saying you "can't " drink and srive isn't a rule. It's more what they call...guidelines. Drinking and driving is as American as drinking and firing automatic weapons on the fourth of July, or drinking and carjacking people on Martin Luther King Day. Or drinking and voting for Hillary Clinton. DON'T make that mistake!

Hahahahaha! Very good question. But if u need to produce ID to buy liquor then maybe u shouldn't be buying it in the first place.

to show your age that you are legal to buy it. duh.

You don't need a driver's license to purchase alcohol. Any valid government issued identification with a photograph will work just fine.

Actually, you just need a state issued photo identification to prove your age....not a DL

you dont need a liscence to buy it you need to show a picture i.d. to prove your of legal age to buy.

It just has to be legal proof, Passport , Driver's licence, Military ID

you dont need a drivers license to buy alcohol but you do need a state issued ID.....to verify age
