When recently doing general notary work on a Living Trust for a lovely family and their father that has used my notary services over the years I learned something new. The father had not driven in over 15 years and recently had a stroke. He is very aware of what is going on around him but the stroke has effected his writing and can no longer drive. Hence no current drivers license, state ID, or Passport. The family had credible witness's available for when I arrived. While gathering proper ID information from one of the credible witness to record in my journal I was a little surprised to notice that her drivers license had a punch hole through her driver lics. expiration date. I nicely asked her about the lic. punch hole on the expiration date. She let me know that she recently applied for a CA Real ID. From what I understand is that she has applied for her Real ID and that DMV punched a hole through the expiration date. So don't be surprised if you start to see punch holes on older California driver lic.. Since her Dr. Lic. was issued only two years ago I was able to use it as her ID per CA code. I am sure many California notaries have seen this punch hole but it was a first for me :-)
