License Data Stripe Technology
The ID Scanner reads 2D barcodes as well as magnetic stripes. This section
explains how to recognize which one is on the driver’s license.
If a license has both, we suggest you scan the 2D barcode first and then the
magnetic stripe to verify the information on the screen is the same from both.
Note:
The scanner does NOT read 1D barcodes because ALL states have either
a 2D barcode or magnetic stripe.
MILITARY IDS
To Scan Military IDs, ONLY SCAN THE 2D BARCODE.
Do NOT scan the 1D barcode or magnetic stripe.
