More Secure
The new North Carolina driver’s licenses will be 100% polycarbonate card that is personalized using laser engraving technology. The card will feel stiffer and have both embossed and debossed patterns and lettering on the surface of the card. Because of its composition, the card will not only look different, it will also feel and make a unique metallic sound when dropped.
North Carolina-Inspired Design
The new card design showcases imagery familiar to North Carolinians, with hints of blue and green specifically chosen to correspond with well-known state attributes such as its rolling hills and abundant nature.
The card front includes the state’s flower – the dogwood, the state flag, state border outline, a marbled salamander, and a lighthouse, all at the forefront of the rolling hills in the west. The card back includes the Colonial Spanish Mustang grazing along one of North Carolina’s many beaches in the east.
