I find it interesting just how different this one of thing is around the world. When I typed up the post it didn't occur to me how well it would translate to someone across the globe. The more you know I guess.

Quoth MoonCat View PostSocial Security numbers are now issued to Americans shortly after they're born (parents have to apply on their kid's behalf, IIRC). It's something that identifies an individual for their entire life and is used for tax purposes, among other things. If someone gets hold of another person's number, they have all they need to steal that person's identity - for ex., they can use it to apply for credit cards, and if the real owner has good credit, the ID theft gets a card in their name and can go on a crazed spending spree, and the real owner of that number ends up fighting the bill with Visa or whoever.
Not all states use that number for the driver's license number. I think NY used to, but doesn't anymore.
Over in my state, when you apply for a drivers licence, if you want to apply for other licence/s, they use the same number across all of them.The best professors are mad scientists! -Zoom
