MONTGOMERY — Beginning Monday, July 27, the cost of Alabama driver licenses and non-driver identification cards will increase by 50 cents, as mandated by Act 2009-762.

Class A commercial license: $53.50

I agree with everybody else here! If I want to give to a charity I will give because I want to! NOT because I`m forced to!!!
I am so sick of having taxes go up, prices in stores go up and the size of boxes/cans/jars ect… become smaller! What ever happened to you get what you pay for???

Yep…they will squeeze every little fee and tax in there everywhere they can. $2 here, .50 cents there, and no one seems to notice or complain. But these “slight increases” add up especially over time. For some reason, we are like zombies and we all just pay it and say “oh, well, thats just the cost of doing business.” While I am on the subject, why does it cost $23 for a basic license? Does $10 go to State and $13 to Federal? Does $3 go to local city government, $7 go to Circle K, and $13 into some politicians pocket? Who comes up with the fee amounts? How are they calculated?
