They didn't cancel her "lost" license and in fact, it looked exactly the same as mine - just a different picture.

Now you have to show so much more documentation that I'm sure it's harder now. But the illegals are getting fake driver's licenses so maybe it's not THAT hard.

Now, unfortunately, I look old enough ;)
