Speak Up! - View Question #49 |
 printer friendly version
Question: Is the mere possession of a fake ID (but not the use of one) a crime?
Answer: Yes it is a crime to possess a fake ID. Using the fake I.D. is also a crime and getting caught using it will get you arrested.
The definition of a crime is doing something that is against the law. By holding a fake I.D. you are committing a crime and therefore breaking the law.
Now, if you never use it, chances are you will never be caught for your actions of breaking the law. This doesn't mean that just because you are not caught breaking the law, that you are not in fact breaking the law by the mere possession of the fake I.D. It is a very, very serious offense. And if you are ever stopped by the police and caught with fake I.D., you will be arrested with no questions asked.

To Monica: I'm pretty sure the cop searching your purse was an invasion of privacy. I'd check it out.

about 2 months ago i was pc'ed for 4 hours. I was taken in by a police cruiser and my car was towed there. when i got to the station they questioned me and asked me for an ID (my purse was in my car, but i didnt have my ID on me at the time) so i told them i had lost it. when i got out of the cell, the police officer had gone through my car and found my purse, and then he looked through it and found 2 fake ID's that i had. now 2 months later, im being sumonsed to court for to counts of forgury of the RMV. My court date is next month and im really nervous
