This is a staggering story. This jobsworth closed the doors on her because she forgot her bus pass the week before. Despite knowing that she definitely has a bus pass because all pensioners in the UK get one. Just a total loss of humanity.

As far as I know, there is no standard ID card that everyone has to carry in the UK. And it’s (thankfully) not like countries where everyone is expected to have a driver’s licence to identify themselves, since a fair number of people don’t drive in the UK (and that assumption sucks anywhere).
Which country expects you to have a driver’s license to identify yourself? It’s certainly not the US.
You can get a state ID, sure but most people don’t. Drivers licenses are the primary form of ID here. I wouldn’t say it’s “expected” but, depending on where you live, it would be unusual to not have one as your primary form of ID if you’re of driving age. And prior to that age you usually don’t have a need for ID
Sure, you are correct, but nobody bats an eye if you present an id card instead of a driver’s license. Hell most people probably don’t even notice the difference. OP was implying that not having a driver’s license is somehow more difficult than having one and that’s completely false for the US
I don’t know about the US but in Canada it can be a frustration when you don’t have a licence.
Where I live your medical services card can act as photo Identification and everyone gets that.
