Is it illegal to have the incorrect height on your driver's license?

I got it back in Sophomore year of HS and I was only 6'0" then so that's what my license says. Now I'm 6'1". If I get pulled over can the officer give me a ticket for being taller than my license says? :hmm:

I doubt they check that. They just look to see if the pic looks like you. Even then, they have to use their best judgement as you may have a different haircut or something.

Hope not. For a while my license said I was 99 feet tall and weighed 99 pounds. It was excellent.

They won't give you a ticket.

They will assume the height discrepancy is because the license is not actually yours. You are an illegal alien, you stole the license, and you will be beaten and deported.

It's your penis size they're truly strict about, but under 3 inches and they don't care at all, so you're cool, Tiny. :p

There is probably some law about accuracy, but I don't think one inch is going to be a problem. I imagine most people have gained weight since they got their license, and you never hear about anyone being charged because their current weight is far higher than what it says on their license.

Yeah, they totally check that. They make you get out of the car, walk to the nearest tree, put down a special leveling plate (much more sophisticated than a piece of plywood), then take a picture of you next to a tape measure. height is serious business.

You guys did away with the "no tell" rule?

Lying bastard. I knew you were just making that up.

Actually you have to go into a mens bathroom in Central park and bend over and grab your ankles......well you know the rest........by the time they are finished you will be the correct height....

I hit 6'1" in 9th grade but my boys got semi ruptured stopping a runner at 2nd. I blame that incident for not reaching my true potential. :D

The cop will make you drive without shoes until you can renew your license. :biggrin:
