IMO, if you don't have your social security number, your driver's license 
number, and your license plate number memorized, you're just asking for 
trouble at some point.  My driver's license number in the back of my head 
saved my a** during an Operation Eagle (for those of you outside NC, that's 
where they blockade the road and ask to see your license, which is all 
they're legally able to stop you for, but they're really looking for drunks) 
because I was able to rattle it off at him.  Confused the heck out of the 
poor cop ("let me get this straight.  You don't have your license but you 
know your license NUMBER?") but they let me go since they weren't looking 
for people driving without their license.  And that ain't no small potatoes 
in NC... driving without a license, even if you actually have a license, is 
a serious no-no.

Not only that, but if you're driving someone else's vehicle, make sure you 
have registration AND proof of insurance if you're out of state because you 
probably don't know what that particular state's laws are on that.  And make 
sure you know what's in the vehicle...

That's a longer, sillier story.
