Probably, although people would not be happy. Many buildings require you to leave your driver's license when you get a visitor's pass to come inside. Of course, a visitor is on foot and passes directly by the security guard. Visits are generally of a short duration. If a guest to a private country club had to leave a license it is for an extended time and the club might be held liable if one got lost or stolen. Worse yet, if it was misused by one of the guards, liability would probably be that of the club.
