ORLANDO, Fla. — Driver Joel Martinez said it is concerning.
"It's just a big issue. You don't know who is who," Martinez said.
State investigators started looking into it further and found Gabriela Gutierrez issued the license in 2014.
Gutierrez worked for the Orange County Tax Collector's Office.
Investigators said they looked back six months and found she issued at least one other fraudulent driver's license without scanning in any of the required documents from the applicant.
"That's in clear violation of the procedures we have in place at the Tax Collector's Office," Eddie Ayala, spokesman for the Orange County Tax Collector's Office said.
Gutierrez was fired.
No one answered at her Poinciana home when Channel 9 knocked on her door.
The Tax Collector's Office said it has been working with state troopers for the past couple of months.
"Obviously it wasn't for nothing. You know, they were getting paid to do this illegally," Martinez said.
The Tax Collector's Office said it cannot comment on whether other employees could be involved.
