Thirty-eight people were indicted following a New Jersey endeavor to identify people who used false identities to fraudulently obtain New Jersey driving licenses, according to media reports.

Among those indicted were a man who's driving license was suspended at least six times who used the identity of a deceased person to obtain a license and get a job working for Coach USA bus service. Another man who had his driving privileges revoked 64 times yet still managed to use false identification to obtain a commercial license to drive trucks and tanker-trailers, news website NorthJersey.com reported.

Called "Operation Facial Scrub," the effort uses sophisticated facial-recognition software to comb through the New Jersey database of about 19 million photos for duplicates, which may tip officials to cases of fraud, the article stated.

"These dangerous drivers should not be behind the wheel of any vehicle," New Jersey Attorney General Jeffery S. Chiesa said, according to the report. "We now have a process in place where we can start to track these people down."

According to the article, Chiesa said more arrests are expected. As a result of Operation Facial Scrub, nearly 150 New Jersey motorists have had their licenses suspended and more than 600 cases have been referred to the New Jersey Attorney General for further investigation.

"A driver's license is a powerful document that enables the holder to open financial accounts, obtain and drive motor vehicles, and board airplanes," Chiesa said, according to the North Jersey site. "We know the 9/11 terrorists had fraudulent licenses from other states. By detecting individuals who have false licenses, law enforcement can potentially uncover other types of crime that these individuals may be involved in, including identity theft, financial fraud and even terrorism."
