Seems simple and clean.
It might seem simple and clean to you, but it isn't accurate at all. Most people have driver's licenses but not all who do, drive.

My youngest daughter has a driver's license and lives in another city. She lives on her own and has no access to a car. She gets from point A to B via public transit. She keeps up her license in case that one day, maybe even in the distant future, she may own a car.

In the meantime she uses her license as photo ID.

According to your definition, she isn't car-free?
