      You’d be amazed how many people driving daily don’t and have never had a license. Used to be a police dispatcher, shit happens all the damn time.

        What’s the procedure then? Arrest, pressing charges, payments or other punishment I (blissfully ignorantly) assume

          Almost always a ticket, assuming that’s the only law you’re breaking. And they will certainly look for more!

          Funny story, I was arrested in Chicagoland one time for not having a license. (Lost my wallet, still had to work.) Officer had a high school kid (cop wannabe) for a ride-along and wanted to demonstrate arrest and booking procedures.

          In and out in 45 minutes but got stuck 30 miles from home.

      The individual whom put this up might not be the original owner of the vehicle. There’s a possibility someone vandalised the vehicle

        Any lower and it will be a line on the ground, judging by the example at hand.
