Should you ever come across someone's lost driver's license, how would you go about getting it back to them? The answer is simpler than you might think.


If you're in the US, you can just drop the ID into any postbox, and the postal service will take care of getting it back its owner, no stamp required. Once I read this, I realized I had no idea what I would have done if I found a lost ID. It's nice to know that it's this simple, and doesn't require any phone calls or paperwork on the good samaritan's part.

The flip side of this is to be sure to update your license every time you move. If you have an old address listed, your ID might never get back to you, or could even end up in some else's hands.


LPT: If you find a lost driver's license, you can drop it any USPS mailbox as is. The post service will deliver it back to the driver. | Reddit
