The Virginia DMV, again

This is what independent filmmakers do when they're bored. The zany guys at Daybyday just opened a huge can of worms with their latest project, the DMV Drivers License Prank. Each of these guys obtains a Virginia drivers license despite obvious, comical alterations to their looks. Check out the YouTube video. I almost fell out of my chair from laughing at the "kung-fu guy", Dave Stewart (funny things seem extra funny when you're in Afghanistan).



Okay, so these guys had some fun at the expense of some Virginia civil servants. However, if you're like me, you're starting to wonder about who else may be interested in a less-than-legit drivers license. Terrorists, perhaps? Two of the 9/11 hijackers obtained fraudulent Virginia licenses to help them in their terror plot (5/18/06 Humble Patriot column). They did not use spray-on hair or novelty teeth. The terrorists simply went to a 7/11 parking lot in Virginia, the same place the illegal immigrants use to get theirs.

According to an article in yesterday's Washington Times, the VA DMV has asked these guys to surrender their licenses and get new photos taken. No doubt this is embarrassing for the Virginia government. Hopefully it will catalyze some changes at their DMV.

Here's the other YouTube video:
