This is the deadline that will never come.

What I don't get is that a lot of sates still offer non Real ID licenses / IDs. Until that changes I don't see this thing happening.

Hilariously I got brand new passports for my kids this year (not a renewal), they came faster than my Real ID...

This is why I never bothered with Real ID. It’s easier to get a passport and you can use a passport for a lot more than a Real ID. So I just continue to get a normal driver’s license.
