abstract: 'I analyze how allowing undocumented immigrants to legally obtain
driver''s licenses shifts commuting patterns, increases job
accessibility, and improves labor market outcomes. Using state-and
nativity-level variation in reforms, I show that granting driving
privileges to the undocumented increases vehicle ownership and the
probability of car commute by 3 percentage points. This improvement in
accessibility leads to a 1 percentage point increase in the employment
rate. The employment effects are larger in low-accessibility localities,
which are more rural and entail longer commuting times. Undocumented
immigrants exhibit stronger positive employment effects in more
vehicle-dependent occupations. These findings highlight the quantitative
importance of transportation barriers in determining the labor market
outcomes of minority workers.'
