Is the ID card number on the driver's license?

There is an ID card number on the driver's license. Driver's license number: The number below the document name on the main page and the supplementary page of the driver's license is the driver's license number. Since each driver's license is unique and non-repetitive, similar to an ID card, the driver's license number uses the ID card number. This establishes a certain correlation between the driver's license and the ID card, making it convenient for traffic police to quickly compare the ID card and the driver's license. At the same time, in some cases, the driver's license can serve as personal identification. File number: The driver's license number is present on both the main and supplementary pages of the driver's license, while the file number is only on the supplementary page. After obtaining a driver's license, each person will have a file generated in the vehicle management office's online system. This file is used to store violation information and processing status. When checking the driver's license, the traffic police not only verify the information on the license but also query the violation records through the file number. This is why the supplementary page of the driver's license, despite having few words, is still indispensable.

I remember when I first got my driver's license, I curiously flipped through it and found my name, photo, license number, birthday, and address, but indeed there was no ID number. The driving school instructor also mentioned that this was to avoid the risk of personal information leakage, such as someone easily impersonating you if they found the license. The driver's license itself primarily serves as proof of driving qualification, and the information on it is sufficient for traffic police checks during inspections. In my daily driving, I find it quite convenient as I don't always need to carry my ID card, which reduces some hassle. Of course, the driver's license number and ID number might be related, but the design intentionally doesn't print it directly, and most people seem to accept this way of protecting privacy.
