The rules do say "valid" ID.. an expired ID is not "Valid".. ask the next
cop that pulls you over and writes a ticket for an "expired" license,
along
with the ticket for the reason he pulled you over.

Interesting. This comes from the licence-as-id situation. The
licence may have expired and be therefore not usable for driving,
which is what the grant of license is about in the first place. But
does this necessarily mean the validity as identification should expire
also? If it was ever valid as a licence, it was not forged, and was
issued by a suitably-official source - if it ever identified the holder
it
would seem to still do so. This is not to say that you'd ever get
a security guy to buy it. You'd need a court case or two to establish
the point.
