a. No person shall operate a motor vehicle on any street without, in his or her possession, a valid driver’s license issued by this or another state to operate the vehicle, and said vehicle shall have current license tags.
b. This section shall not apply to persons expressly exempt by state law from the requirement of a driver’s license nor shall this section be construed so as to interfere with reciprocity rights under state law as concerns the driver of a vehicle bearing an out-of-state license to driving with an out-of-state driver’s license.
