COLUMBIA, S.C. (WCBD) — Starting this fall, South Carolina will no longer issue same-day driver’s licenses and identification cards, mailing them instead to streamline the process and enhance security features. The Department of Motor Vehicles is redesigning licenses, beginner’s permits, and ID cards to be made from stronger materials and include advanced security elements that make them more tamper-resistant.
