According to law, who is allowed to hold your driverslicience?

I'm not sure what you are asking.  If by the term "hold" you mean confiscate, only law enforcement officials or the department of motor vehicles.  Please clarify your question.

yeah, unless you have a drivers license

Because you've got something they want.  And the subpoena will almost certainly say on it what they want...it will be some kind of document(s) that you are likely in charge of.\n\nIt has nothing to do with your driver's license.

If you mean handicap lisence, Yes. People who already have driving licenses usually get handicap lisences when they have trouble walking from the car to a store or doctor office or wherever because of health problems.

I believe they can do so under color of law. \n\nWhen a "peace officer" activates that red light on their car your only lawful action is to yield to that red light. If the officer keeps that red light on and is behind your car, you are not free to go, you are under arrest, although most police will say its only a detention. The test is to ask if you are free to go, if you are not free to go you are under arrest.\n\nThe officer under California law can perform a warrantless arrest under the vehicle code. However as you pointed out the vehicle code can only be used upon commercial vehicles, this is why the DMV is so adamant in issuing Commercial Class C drivers licenses to all people so the officers can pull over just about any car as the vast majority of citizens have admitted to being Class C or other commercial class of driver. Once you show your License you establish you are a driver and subject to regulation.\n\nIf you are not driving a commercial vehicle, California law Vehicle Code Sec. 260(a),(b) can be enlightening. Section 260(a) defines the type of vehicle required to be registered (regulated) under the Vehicle Code, commercial vehicles. Section 260(b) flat out states private cars and housecars are not commercial vehicles. As a citizen you are supposed to have the logical brain power to infer if Commercial Vehicles are required to be regulated, and private cars are not commercial vehicles, then priavte cares are not required to be registered (regulated). \n\nThis is why in farming communities a truck with the NOT FOR HIRE sign can use the public roads unregistered (politicians have placed restrictions on this in recent decades, talk to some old timers they will set you straight).\n\nSo when a peace officer who has taken POST training demands a license, he is making several assumptions, one you have a Drivers License and two, you were engaged in the activity of driving, moving goods or persons for hire via the public easement. If these two presumptions can be proven unfounded then you as a citizen would have excellent grounds for filing a Title 42 Section 1983 action against the offending officer, as well as a Title 18 Section 242. Even if the officer beats the Civilr Rights case, he can't beat the ride you get to take him on through the federal court. So if you feel an offcier has violated your freedoms by giving you a ticket, sue him, at the very least you can pay him back for making you jump trough the Superior Court System, by making the officer jump through the Federal Court System.\n\nThe right to travel is a god given right, including the right to travel in the conveyance of the day unhindered by government actors.

Not by law, but you will want to for liability reasons. For instance, if you had an employee driving your company car and they crash into someone hurting them and they found out that you never checked for their driver's license they can sue you for being negligent (sp)...and that comes with a hefty price you are found guilty.

As far as I know, in any state, when you have a learner's permit, a licensed driver is required to be with you.

They can if they ask permission and you grant it.  Or they can if they have probably cause.  Or they can when they impound the car and have to "inventory" the contents.

Yes but you need a license thats registered with the police and be able to prove you have a good reason to own one.

Each state sets their own driving rules.

I think it depends on the state. I only needed my drivers licence.

Good question. I'm not really sure, but theoretically speaking, it all depends on the lengths the officer is willing to go. I used to be in the army, and there was a time I had to commandeer a civilian vehicle. I didnt bother learning what we were allowed to do and not allowed to do, and since it was in a different country, the rules could've been different.

However long you have a license suspension  a judge may require the plate if you are granted permission to drive to and from work. This law has actually been available since 1967.

relief from aprohibition (i.e., to allow someone to drive that has been prohibited from driving).

No. You don't have a valid driver's license and aren't allowed to drive anywhere.\n\nBest wishes and God bless.

Actually, it depends on the state. For example, in VA you have to present your driver's license within 24 hours to the police if you get pulled over. If you don't want the hassle, just keep your license on you when you drive.

Both are responsible,  the owner is responsible to have it, and the driver is responsible not to drive it unless it has.\n\nBoth can be ticketed if caught.\n\nNext someone owns it, if the person died, then who ever inherits his property is the new owner at that point.\n\nAlso once he died, you would be responsbile to return the car to the estate or the person how inherited the property, you do not have legal permission to use the car once the person who gave you that permission is dead
