Fair point @systolic

They could trust the dealer to have confirmed / know the identity of the person he is making inquiries about. Nothing wrong with trusting the occasional civilian.

I have myself had mixed experience of shops verifying my license. Maybe it's just because of the job I do that shop assistants "assume" I'm of course legit - but assumption can be the mother of some funny looking kids. I always insist on showing my license.
