You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I couldn't believe that this website is not crossing some kind of privacy issues. I guess since you can remove your information that it makes it legit.

You can view any driver licence that has been printed by the Ministry of transportation and what ever they call it in the US. Find Ontario in the drop down menu its after the us states. Type in your name and city and after a quick search a list of matching names will pop up click the name you were looking for and it will show you the driver licence picture and name thank god that the address and DOB is blanked out. It will ask you if your the owner of this ID and ask you to enter your address and DOB and you can remove it from the list. I did mine who knows who will be searching your name looking to put a Face to the name it can be dangerous.

Remove your picture now.

Before I click the link, two things:

How did you find the website? They're using a forwarder - can you copy and paste the link to the website from your IE / Firefox browser history? Pasting a "masking" URL is potentially a very serious security risk.

How do you know that by going to a website that has nothing to do with any government agency that you're removing your picture / info? You could well be certifying that a license that criminals wish to duplicate is indeed valid.
