Your First Driver License
An Indiana driver's license issued by the Bureau of Motor Vehicles indicates the extent of the holder’s privileges to operate motor vehicles. Law enforcement officers use driver's licenses to identify drivers and access driving records. Hoosiers also use driver's licenses to prove their identity, for example, when voting, writing checks or boarding an airplane.
