Robert Downey Jr. can get anywhere he wants as Iron Man, with his rocket-booster boots. But apparently he still needs a license to operate as a superhero.

The actor was photographed on Tuesday doing what any ordinary citizen must do: dealing with the Department of Motor Vehicles. Downey shared the images on Twitter, saying that he was "gettin' my renewal on at the Santa Monica DMV."

How great is it to see the affable star posing for his license picture? We don't even have to be a bouncer or a cop to know that he wore a blue suit and flashed a cocky grin for the occasion.

Oh, and there he is giving his thumb print. Sure, maybe he breezed to the front of the line without sitting for two hours like we do, but we can cut Tony Stark some slack.

We're not all in a hurry to get out of the DMV and back to saving the world.
