Don’t say cheese: NJ

New Jersey residents have another reason to frown — they’re not allowed to smile for driver’s-license photos.

The state imposed a ban in January, saying expressions confuse facial-recognition software designed to catch identity thieves.

But the ban got little attention until a 38-year-old driver stormed out of the Cherry Hill Motor Vehicle Commission office on Tuesday when she was told she couldn’t smile as her photo was taken.
