What is the name of your state (only U.S. law): Texas
I recently had applied for a Texas drivers license and they now take all ten fingerprints instead of just thumbprints. I deeply regret letting the state hold onto those prints, and would like to turn in my drivers license and have those records destroyed once i no longer have the "privilege" to drive and have a identification. However they are being evasive on the subject ( i was literally told "I don't know" when i asked about this on the phone and she wouldnt answer) and they havnt replied to any of four emails over the past few weeks. What rights do i have to destruction of these prints? For personal security ( you cant change biometrics like you can ID numbers if there is a data breach! Or say even mis-ID matches from prints from a crime, it could happen!) and for privacy reasons.
