PALO ALTO, CA, February 25, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The state of New York has completely redesigned its driver's license and added some 30 enhanced security features, although information on just some of the features will be made available to the public. A laser-engraved personal data and black-and-white holder's photo, a ghost image that floats in a transparent window, variable type, and UV features on both sides are among the new security measures.
In an effort to curb the use of fake licenses and to support underage prevention efforts, the new license is made of a rigid polycarbonate material that makes it difficult to fabricate or alter the document. To aid restaurants, bars, and retailers in preventing underage drinking, the minor's license is now in a vertical format, which makes identifying minors a snap.

Knowing what the new license looks like and what its security features are makes performing a driver's license check for fake id detection quick and easy. Identification of fake licenses is further enhanced with the information license number configurations, terms for non-U.S. citizens/residents, and other key details.
The new New York license is shown at full size and in full color, and its security features are detailed, in the new 2014 I.D. Checking Guide, which will be available on February 1, 2014. The new edition also includes images and descriptions of several other new license formats, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection's Trusted Traveler Programs cards, employment authorization cards, tax exemption cards, military IDs, and other forms of government-issued identification documents.
