Abstract: A driver identification system for verifying that a driver of the vehicle has insurance. The driver identification system includes a scanner assembly being designed for operationally coupling to the ignition system of the vehicle whereby the scanner assembly selectively disables the ignition system of the vehicle. The scanner assembly has a housing. The housing is designed for coupling to a dashboard of the vehicle. A card member has an identification strip. The identification strip is positioned on a face of the card member. The card member is selectively insertable into the housing of the scanner assembly whereby the identification strip of the card member is read by a scanning unit of the scanner assembly. The identification strip identifies the driver of the vehicle when the identification strip is read by the scanning unit of the scanner assembly whereby the scanner assembly enables the ignition system of the vehicle.
