So You Lost Your License? Don't Panic, You Can Still Drive (Well, Sort Of)
We've all been there. You're rummaging through your purse/wallet/murse (hey, no judgement) frantically searching for your driver's license, muttering under your breath about that black hole dimension socks always seem to disappear into. But unlike socks, a driver's license is a little more crucial (and hopefully less likely to end up mysteriously paired with a single, lonely sock).
The good news, my forgetful friend, is that in the wonderful state of Washington, you can actually print a copy of your driver's license from the comfort of your couch (or while frantically searching under the couch cushions, no judgement here either).

Printing Your Washington State Driver's License: A Guide for the Scatterbrained
Fear not, fellow forgetful citizen! Here's how to whip up a copy of your license in a jiffy:
Tip: Reread tricky sentences for clarity.
-
Channel your inner internet wizard: Head over to the Washington State Department of Licensing website (https://dol.wa.gov/).
-
Arm yourself with knowledge (and probably a cup of coffee): You'll need to log in to your account. If you haven't already created one, don't worry, it's a breeze.
-
Behold! The magical "Print License" button: Once logged in, this glorious button will be waiting for you, like a knight in slightly less shiny armor (but hey, it gets the job done!).
-
Pick your poison (or rather, your print preference): You can choose to generate a PDF file to save or print, or have it conveniently emailed to you.
-
Print it, cherish it, don't lose it (again): Now you have a spiffy copy of your license. Maybe laminate it, frame it, or at least put it somewhere you'll actually remember (like taped to your forehead? Just kidding...mostly).
Important Note: This printed copy is a handy backup, but it's not quite the same as the official plastic version. For legal purposes, the physical license is still preferred by some authorities.

How much does it cost to print my license?
Tip: Summarize the post in one sentence.
There's a small fee of $5 per copy, but hey, that's a lot cheaper than replacing a lost license altogether.
How long does it take to print my license?
Tip: Reread slowly for better memory.
The whole process is pretty speedy. It should only take a few minutes to generate the PDF file.
Can I print a copy of my ID card too?
Absolutely! The process is exactly the same.
Is there a way to avoid ever losing my license again?
Well, there's no foolproof method, but maybe consider attaching a Tile tracker to it? Or perhaps a giant flashing neon sign that says "Important! Do Not Lose!" Whatever works for you!
