Seems to me the burden of proof is on the DA to show that the employee
had such a belief.

I walked into a motorcycle dealership one day and paid cash for
a brand new Virago 250. I didn't ride it away, it was loaded into
my van. I didn't have to show any ID, so the salesman had no way
of knowing whether I had a motorcycle endorsement on my DL.

Nor did he ask to me demonstrate any riding skill. The Dept of
Motor Vehicles does that, not bike dealers.
