46. re: "There was a need for driver's licenses"

Article. IV.
Section. 1.
Full Faith and Credit shall be given in each State to the public Acts, Records, and judicial Proceedings of every other State. And the Congress may by general Laws prescribe the Manner in which such Acts, Records and Proceedings shall be proved, and the Effect thereof.

Note the second sentence of section 1. Congress is empowered to enforce that states respect such permits issued by other states. Do you have a problem with the Constitution granting that power to congress?
