Driver identifies himself as Homer Simpson!
As the Kleine Zeitung and Chip report, a driver in Milton Keynes, Great Britain, had his driver's license revoked.
What doesn't sound particularly spectacular at first takes on an interesting turning point when you know which driver's license the Brit had presented to the police officer:
Earlier this week, @tvprp 's PC Phillips stopped a car in Milton Keynes.
When she tried to identify the driver's ID, she found the below…
The driver's car was seized and he was reported for driving with no insurance and driving without a proper license.

The man actually handed over a fake driver's license made out to the cult character Homer Simpson from the series of the same name “ The Simpsons ”.
The Thames Valley Police officer was astonished when she made this discovery during an ordinary traffic stop.
Fans criticize “poorly made” driver’s license
The incident caused a few laughs, not least because of the police's Twitter post. However, attentive fans complain about the fake driver's license's lack of attention to detail.
Homer's birthday is not on August 4, 1963, but, as revealed in the episode “No Experiments,” on May 12, 1956. The address also does not correspond to the original. Instead of Springfield Way, it should read 742 Evergreen Terrace.
Nevertheless, this joke was not without consequences for the driver. Because he now has to answer in court for illegal driving and has to give up his car in the future.
