Masters Washington Post Staff Writer Friday, September 21, 2001; Page A15 Four of the hijackers who crashed American Airlines Flight 77 into the Pentagon exploited an unusual legal loophole to obtain Virginia driver's licenses even though they did not live in the state, according to law enforcement sources and documents. Virginia officials said they would change their rules today to try to prevent such abuse. Khalid Al-Midhar, Majed Moqed, Nawaq Alhazmi and Hani Hanjour took advantage of a Virginia law that allows people to get driver's licenses without providing such documents as passports or leases to verify their identity and residence, said sources close to the investigation. Maryland and most other states and the District require applicants to present a passport or out-of-state license to prove identity as well as a utility bill or lease to prove that they live in the state. Until today, Virginia allowed applicants to present a notarized residency form cosigned by a state resident and a notarized identity form cosigned by a lawyer. The forms were meant to help foreign refugees who did not have the standard documentation, but they have been widely abused. An Arlington notary public was convicted last month of immigration fraud for helping thousands of out-of-state illegal immigrants obtain Virginia driver's licenses.
