KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) - Researchers say Missouri misses out on millions of dollars each year in tax revenue that could be collected on Internet sales.

The Kansas City Star reports that Missouri is 1 of the U.S. states that haven't signed onto a 1999 agreement to simplify and encourage voluntary collection of sales taxes by e-commerce retailers. About 1,400 retailers voluntarily collect sales taxes under the agreement.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) - Missouri drivers will see changes in their driver's licenses beginning this year.

The Department of Revenue says new licenses will have security features such as special printing, laser perforations and bar codes. The state says the changes are designed to protect the owner's identity and fight fraud.

The state also plans to issue temporary licenses at licenses offices, and drivers will receive their permanent licenses in the mail seven to 10 days later.

And drivers under the age of 21 will get vertical licenses.
