as long as you remember who you are......you are probably OK.

The more "equipment intensive" you life becomes....the better chance there is that something will get left behind from time-to-time. ;-)

Shooootttt, no big deal...I left my wallet at the house earlier this week...Guess what! I wasn't allowed to eat lunch as a punishment for my infraction (I work at the same company my wife does)...

I drove, I carried all without DL, CHL and money...It was almost bliss!!! :lol:

'Cept for the grumbling in the stomach...That kinda rubbed me wrong...

Speaking of lunch...

(Steve checks to make sure he has his wallet...)

And your wife is your only friend there? Or just the only one with lunch money? :lol:

Here's a suggestion: Make a couple of photocopies of everything in your wallet. Keep a copy in your car.

It's not legally valid, but it may earn you the benefit of the doubt.

I lost my wallet while traveling (entirely my fault), and the backup saved my bacon.

Warning:

doing this also gives anyone who jacks your car copies of your personal information. I'm not sure I would be comfortable with that. I don't even leave proof of insurance in the car.

have the documentation in a locked and secure box in your car would be a good idea though. Of course, we all know it's only a matter of time before any lock is defeated.

I've been seriously thinking about getting a lock box in the car between the seats anyway for quick and easy gun storage when I have to leave the piece in the truck.

if they have the VIN.....assume they have your personal info as well, if they want it.

publicdata.com

pick a VIN out of a parking lot and see for yourself.

5 mins online gets you:
Registered owner

Address

Owner and every other licensed driver at the address's DL number, DOB, etc.

Criminal records of everyone from associated address

Professional License records and #'s

Voter Registration info

Civil litigation info

the list goes on....and on....and on


Ever wonder why Identity Theft has become the problem it has..... :mad:

True, and I didn't think of that.

I will be moving my copy to a place where thieves will be unlikely to find it unless they disassemble the car down to individual parts.

You have a point and it is well taken. I've thought of that in the past, however I have a policy that I will not enable them to make said theft easier. That means I shield that information as much as possible.

Keep a ballcap on your dash with the bill stuffed down far enough to cover the VIN plate. (visible on the drivers side dash of every vehicle that I'm aware of)

They can still crawl under your vehicle and get it from a couple of places, but these locations require FAR to much effort for common thugz.

And besides........they don't want to get the G-Wear dirty :razz:

No not really...She still doesn't do what I tell her to do, either at home or work... ;-)

And yes...I am not given the responsibilty to handle money...If I want a cold drink, I have to go beg for the money...

Is that not just the saddest and most pathetic thing you've ever heard???

No wait...check that too...
