How does the dude only have a Ralph’s card as ID?

When the Malibu sheriff is going through The Dude’s wallet, all he’s got is a Ralph’s card.

But later he has to pick up his car from the impound lot… which definitely requires a driver’s license.

So what’s the deal here?

Did the cops just not find it?

Is he driving around without a license?

Or is this one of those things where the Dude somehow just talks his way through everything?

Feels like a small detail but it doesn’t really track unless the Dude is way more reckless than he seems.
