No, as long as you never showed it to anyone it wouldn't be very useful. And if you refrain from any activities where you might have to show an ID you'll never have to show it to anyone. In that case there'd be no reason for you to have an ID at all.
Why don't you just stop driving and dispose of the DL entirely?
So put a photo on it.
Now, could you please explain how a national ID card or a national standard for IDs by itself poses any restriction of civil liberties to law abiding citizens?
