Is a permit to drive considered a government issued ID?

Question

it has a picture of me, but i'm not too sure. i need a government issued ID for a concert tomorrow and i lost my license.

Answer 1

Yes, if it was issued by the DMV, it's a government issued ID.....

Answer 2

Yes.

Your permit is probably expired if you have had time to loose your license.  An "expired" ID is probably not an ID.  (I couldn't get on a plane once with an expired dirver's license -- till I showed them my un-expired library card.  Honest.  No-Fooling)  

Whoever is asking for the ID will have final say.  Make sure they see at least a $20 with the ID.  

Answer 3

Yes.
