If I’d known that the Californa DMV actually put weights on drivers licenses, I would’ve lied. Big time. I don’t need store clerks knowing that! At least in Michigan, they had the decency to leave that off the actual license.

Seems like a pretty gratuitous invasion of privacy to me. What good is information on a person’s weight going to do a policeman? People’s weight can fluctuate.
Just checked my Virginia license and it only has height, not weight. height is unlikely to change, so I can understand that bit of information being on a license.
Now that I think about it, the height on my license hasn’t changed since I first got my license at sixteen. It still says 5 foot 6. I think I’ve grown a bit since then. Maybe not much, but an inch or two.
Clearly Michiganders are much more decent and progressive than those sun coast California hippie types. . .
Seems pretty incredible to me to have such a variable (and sensitive) thing on the license. Maybe Mr. Fit Governor Schwarzenegger has something to do with it. He’s always been a fitness buff, after all . . .
You people are all spoiled. They put weights on licenses in indiana, and laugh diabolically the entire time while doing it. In fact, they’re still laughing. Or they could just be laughing at my photo…
Of course, I have my 2000 weight on my license. So that’s not going to help police very much, either.
Yah, and they drag tourists into the cornfields and sacrifice them to Yahweh in Indiana, too. It’s a backward state, unlike the more sophisticated Nor’East and Industrial Mid-West.
Just kidding, just kidding …!
I completely agree with the fluctuating weight thing. And that’s probably why Michigan doesn’t have it. And that information IS available to the secretary of state and police, just not to random people like store clerks who will then proceed to laugh and laugh and laugh.
Damn hippy liberals. Oh, wait….
Sophisticated nor’east, huh? Is that why you lop letters off some words and add them to the ends of others?
Besides, you’re wrong about the tourist sacrifice. There are no tourists in Indiana.
We Easterners are a succinct people. If we don’t need a letter, we lop it off. Hard winters make for curt spelling.
