Arkansas AG sues company, alleges sale of fake driver's licenses

Arkansas News Bureau: LITTLE ROCK - The state attorney general's office filed a lawsuit Thursday against a Jonesboro company for allegedly offering fake driver's licenses to Hispanics in northeastern Arkansas. McDaniel's office filed suit in Craighead County Circuit Court against Benjamin Sanchez, Oscar Sanchez and Rita Soto, owners and operators of International Automovil Association Inc. The company, according to the lawsuit, illegally offered international driver's licenses or documents, despite having no authority to offer such a document. "Anytime someone is issuing fake ID cards to illegal immigrants the attorney general's office is concerned," McDaniel said in a news release. Foreign drivers may legally drive in the U.S. if they have a valid driver's license from their home country and receive an International Driver's Document, he said. International Automovil Association was selling the licenses for $140 each. Legitimate International Driver's Documents cost less than $20. [Source]
