On The Other Hand, Everyone Looks Sick On Their Licenses
-
A woman in New Jersey is undergoing chemo and lost her hair, and when she went to renew her drivers' license, she wanted them to use her existing photo with her lost hair, because she didn't want to look sick on the license and because, soon enough, she'll be back looking like the picture. The DMV forced her to take a new photo in her hairless, gaunt state, because the rules are the rules. Except that they've made exceptions in the past, including for the woman's mom. They COULD just use the old photo; that particular agency decided that they were going to screw with a cancer patient, because they could and because common sense died long ago. (Asbury Park Press)
