San Jose TSA is no joke. Or apparently my 5’5” blonde DD18 looks like a terrorist. They did not like her ID. Her DL that she has used to fly for several trips and never been an issue. Our under 21 DLs are sideways. The guy did not like it. She said he got some Book of IDs out and claimed it didn’t match. Called 3 other people over to look at it. I guess someone finally said it was OK. She is my high anxiety child. I imagine she was freaking out.
I didn't realize anyone still used the horizontal for under 21. I was so glad that they didn't change to vertical until after I turned 21 though because I think they are awful looking. I have to get a new DL before my bday in May and I think I'm going to spend the extra 20 bucks to get the enhanced one so I don't have to travel domestically with my passport. I'd worry too much that I'd lose it and it's just not worth the hassle for saving 20 which is really only 4 per year over the course of the ID. My mom got the regular and it says something like not/non federally compliant or something close to that, I also don't want an ID that says that cause it sounds like I've done something wrong
