> I like the spirit but wouldn't this run afoul of one or two laws? Identity fraud or some such?

I would say not, but then again I'm no lawyer.

There's plausible deniability in that there's a big "this is satire" watermark on top of the licence. The DOB in part 3 is wrong, and the driver number in part 5 is modified to include the 5 letters of the surname, but is otherwise incorrect. The DOB encoded in the licence number doesn't even match the wrong DOB in part 3 either.

If anything accepts this as valid ID, then it just shows how farcical the system is.
