When is a "document of gift, executed on a California Driver's license, considered to be valid?

• A. It is valid only with the permission of the superior court
• B. It is valid only if concurrence has been given by the next of kin
• C. It is valid regardless of the license having been revoked, suspended, expired or cancelled
• D. It is valid only if the license has not been revoked, suspended, expired or cancelled

Answer: (D)

The main idea is that the document of gift tied to a California driver’s license is only effective while the license itself is valid. If the license has been revoked, suspended, expired, or cancelled, there isn’t a valid license to anchor the donor’s gift, so the designation cannot be enforced. That’s why the correct condition is that the document is valid only if the license has not been revoked, suspended, expired, or cancelled. The other options misstate who must approve or the ongoing validity—donor intent on a license stands as the gift, but only when the license remains active.
