QuickTip: Stop to think as you go.
If you're a seasoned citizen of Oklahoma and your ID is simply due for a renewal, then YES, you can absolutely celebrate with an online application. High fives all around! But for those of you who are new to the ID game, well, get ready for a mini-adventure (with pants, sorry).
Why the in-person ID shuffle?
Tip: Reread key phrases to strengthen memory.
Apparently, the lovely folks at the Oklahoma Department of Public Safety (DPS) like to see your face (and maybe your proof of residency, not your cat that photobombed your selfie). It's all about security, and hey, a little human interaction never hurt anyone (except maybe that guy who cut you in line at the DMV... but that's a story for another time).
