“No need to provide your address if all they need to know is that you are who you say you are.”

California has been quietly testing out a mobile driver license that could help speed travelers through airport security and also help protect users’ privacy when asked to verify their age for purchases.

The California Department of Motor Vehicles began a mobile driver license pilot in late May with the pool of pilot participants expanding in phases before a broader rollout in August. The DMV’s “mDL” pilot now is open to the public, with some 100,000 people already signed up, but the legislature limits the trial to 1.5 million.

TSA spokeswoman Lorie Dankers said the technology can be used at SJC’s Checkpoint A, SFO’s Terminal 3 and LAX’s Terminal 7.The mobile driver license also can belike liquor, tobacco and electronic cigarettes or vape kits at some outlets near Sacramento. “No need to provide your address if all they need to know is that you are who you say you are and that you are over 21,” Gore said.
