licence photo wearing a pasta strainer as "religious headgear".

Sadly, not long after the guy got his license his car broke down.




Turns out he had a bad carbonaruretor.

Yes, you'd think the whole experience would be too much of a strain.

Edit: dammit Platapus!

It's silly as all get out, but points out a valid area on things.
If anyone can wear a hat or something for whatever reason?
Why can others be denied the same thing?

Why do you need to wear anything on your head for a Drivers License in the first place?
