New Virginia driver's licenses will be black & white photos, because color is threat

[D Ghost]

RICHMOND, Va. -- Do you like to apply a little rouge and lipstick before getting your new driver's license? It soon won't matter in Virginia, which apparently thinks color makes you a security threat.

There's something missing from the new Virginia driver's licenses...

The Department of Motor Vehicles is rolling out a new look for Virginia licenses, and that look includes a lot of black and white.

Starting in March, the state will begin issuing new licenses and ID cards with black-and-white photos intended to improve security and blunt counterfeiting. How does a non-color photo make us more secure? Good question.

isn't a black and white photo easier to photo-shop than a color photo?
