Alcohol Safety

Category - Checking ID

When Joel asks to see a customer’s ID, the customer says he or she is currently awaiting a new driver license but has a temporary paper one. Should Joel accept the temporary license?
  1. Yes. A temporary driver license is just as good as a permanent one when it is issued by the state.
  2. No. A temporary driver license is not considered valid when it comes to purchasing alcohol.
  3. It depends on the establishment’s policies.
Explanation
Answer: C - Many establishments have their own policies when it comes to identification, so Joel should follow whatever rules his employers have set.

If there is no set policy concerning temporary driver licenses, the bartender/server should use his or her best judgment. Asking for another form of identification always helps.
