More police state

I was required to show photo ID as well as my membership card in order to get two maps at AAA. They claim they're having an identity-theft problem (but they don't seem willing to issue photo membership cards the way Costco does).

I've had to show them before, too -- years ago.

It certainly is annoying, I can agree with you there. But probably not police state evidence unless it's a government entity or similar (like the subway.)

However, you can write an annoyed note to AAA HQ and they might even listen, unlike the government.
