A valid driver license issued after April 2009 has what in front of the card?

A valid driver license issued after April 2009 typically features the phrase "Federal Limits Apply" in front of the card if it is not compliant with the REAL ID Act. This indicates that the license may not be accepted for certain federal identification purposes, such as boarding a commercial flight or accessing federal facilities. In contrast, compliant licenses, often marked with a star, meet the requirements of the REAL ID Act.
