A customer presents an ID that is expired. How should the server generally treat it?

An expired ID should be treated with caution because, depending on the jurisdiction and house policy, it may not be acceptable as valid proof of age. Some places do not accept expired IDs at all; others may under limited circumstances. Because an expired ID also raises the possibility that the person no longer matches the photo or is using an old document improperly, the safe approach is to follow the establishment's policy and decline service if a valid, acceptable ID cannot be provided. When unsure, do not serve.
