Indiana bans drivers from smiling in new license photos

I still remember the day when I got my driver's license. That was when I turned 16 as well.

Although, I'm quite curious to see if there's anything found on a history or a time line of when all states started to add the photos on the driver licenses? I have to wonder, Which state was the first state to start the driver license photos?

That's a good question, Jolie. I think Ohio started putting photos on driver's licenses in 1975. TN was in 1972, if I am not mistaken.

That's a good question. As for makeups, I would assume that it is not a big deal because I haven't heard of a case where a person would have to wash off the make ups in order to get the driver license photo.

Perhaps, If that person's face was heavily caked up with makeups, that might be a reason but I guess, it'd depend on how much makeup that person wears. :dunno:

make-up does not distort facial structure. It only fools person's eyes but it does not fool software. The facial recognition software does not compare faces by looks - only facial physical structure. That's why they ask you to not smile and remove any physical-wearing device (glasses, headband, etc.).

Take a look below on how facial recognition software sees your face -

That's why make-up does not matter as long as it does not distort the physical structure. Those pictures above vary among competitors who make facial recognition software.
 
Someone from New Jersey told me that the elderly and handicapped have the option of whether or not to have a pic on their driver's license. Dunno if that is true. :dunno:

in order to qualify for handicapped parking spot - it is legally defined as a person with limited or no ambulatory movement.

I know some states don't put pics on driver's licenses for those over 65. I've never heard of the handicapped one, though.

i was trying to point out there it has more to do than just ability to move arms and legs. it can be lung disease. that creates the restriction. when people don't see some one in a wheelchair or using a walker or cane, they don't think anything is wrong with them.
