Don't Say "Cheese" at the DMV

If you are going to renew your license at the DMV in Virginia (or Arkansas, Indiana, and Nevada), don’t smile when your picture is being taken. Why, you ask? Well, the reason is that the DMV uses a specific software that is designed to detect identity theft, and if you smile, it creates more difficulties to distinguish your image. The DMV now requires a neutral look with no smile. Virginia is the most stringent, where they want you to think of the DMV experience as being one with your ex or a confrontation with your nemesis (in a professional format). Gee, I don’t think I have smiled once at the DMV, since it is like a confrontation with my nemesis or comparable to torture.
