ILLEGAL BUSTED

New York State issued a commercial driver’s license to an illegal alien with “NO NAME GIVEN” listed as his first name, exposing a reckless disregard for public safety that put American families at risk on our highways.

Story Highlights

  • ICE arrested Indian national Anmol Anmol operating an 18-wheeler with a bizarre New York CDL listing “NO NAME GIVEN” as the first name.
  • Suspect entered the U.S. illegally in 2023 but was released by the Biden administration, and later received employment authorization.
  • DHS slams New York’s “reckless and incredibly dangerous” licensing practices that endanger public safety.
  • The case highlights failed state policies allowing unauthorized individuals to operate massive commercial vehicles.

Illegal Driver Operating Heavy Machinery on American Roads

Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested Anmol Anmol during a routine truck inspection on Interstate 40 in Oklahoma. The Indian national was operating an 18-wheeler with a New York State commercial driver’s license bearing the absurd designation “NO NAME GIVEN” as his first name.

Oklahoma Highway Patrol, working through the 287(g) partnership program, confirmed Anmol entered the United States illegally in 2023 but was released into the country by the Biden administration’s failed border policies.

New York’s Dangerous Licensing Negligence Exposed

New York DMV issued the Class A CDL in April 2025, valid until May 2028, despite the glaring absence of a complete legal name.

DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin condemned New York’s actions as “reckless and incredibly dangerous to public safety,” criticizing the state for issuing CDLs without proper verification of full legal names or citizenship status.

This represents a fundamental breakdown in basic identification protocols that every American expects from government agencies responsible for public safety.

The New York DMV attempted to defend its indefensible actions, claiming Anmol possessed federal employment authorization and that their procedures comply with federal guidelines.

They argued that some individuals from certain countries may have only one name, and federal documents sometimes use “no name given” as a placeholder. This excuse fails to address the core issue: why would any responsible agency issue a commercial license to operate massive vehicles without proper identification verification?

Pattern of Border Security Failures Endangering Americans

This arrest follows another high-profile case involving Harjinder Singh, another Indian national and illegal alien involved in a deadly trucking accident. The pattern reveals systematic failures in both border security and state licensing procedures that put American lives at risk.

Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt emphasized state sovereignty in response, declaring that out-of-state license holders must comply with Oklahoma law upon entry. This principled stance demonstrates how states can protect their citizens when federal and other state authorities fail.

The case exposes the dangerous intersection of sanctuary state policies and immigration enforcement failures. When states like New York prioritize political correctness over public safety, they create situations where unvetted individuals operate vehicles weighing up to 80,000 pounds on highways traveled by American families.

The 287(g) program partnership between the Oklahoma Highway Patrol and ICE proved crucial in identifying and apprehending this individual, showcasing effective law enforcement cooperation.

Constitutional Concerns and Public Safety Crisis

This incident represents more than administrative incompetence—it reveals a deliberate erosion of immigration law enforcement and public safety standards. The Biden administration’s catch-and-release policies created the initial problem by allowing Anmol to remain in the country after illegal entry.

New York’s subsequent licensing negligence compounded the danger by providing official documentation to someone without proper identification verification. These failures undermine the rule of law and endanger law-abiding Americans who expect their government to maintain basic safety standards.

Anmol remains in removal proceedings, but the broader implications demand immediate attention. The trucking industry may face increased liability concerns if unauthorized drivers cause accidents, while states that maintain strict licensing standards must deal with dangerous drivers licensed elsewhere.

This case illustrates why uniform national standards for CDL issuance and enhanced verification processes are essential to protect American communities from preventable tragedies caused by government negligence.
