Before BUTTLER, P.J., JOSEPH, C.J., and DE MUNIZ, J.
DE MUNIZ, Judge.
Defendant seeks reversal of his convictions for failure to present a driver's license, ORS 807.570, furnishing false information to a peace officer, ORS 162.385, and speeding. ORS 811.110. We consider only the contentions that the officer lacked probable cause to arrest, that he improperly searched defendant's wallet after the arrest and that the evidence is not sufficient to support his convictions.[1]
After estimating its speed at 70 miles per hour in a posted 55 miles per hour zone, Officer Poggi stopped the car that defendant was driving. When Poggi requested defendant's driver's license or identification, he replied that he had neither. The officer asked him for his name; defendant replied, "Francisco Alvares." At the officer's request, defendant wrote "Francisco Alvares" in the officer's notebook. Poggi then placed defendant under arrest for failure to present a driver's license. After putting defendant in handcuffs, he "patted him down for weapons" and, while doing so, felt an object in defendant's left rear pants pocket. Poggi removed the object, which he described as a "very thin folder," and opened it.[2] Inside the "folder," Poggi found an Oregon identification card with defendant's picture and true name. Poggi testified that he opened the wallet, because he was looking for identification and weaponssuch as a razor blade.
In support of his claim that Poggi lacked probable cause to arrest him, defendant contends that, when he said that he did not have a driver's license or identification, Poggi was obligated to undertake a records check to determine whether he was licensed. Defendant argues that a records check revealing that he was not licensed would establish that he had committed only the infraction of operating a vehicle without driving privileges, ORS 807.010,[3] for which he could only be cited and released, not arrested.
Even putting aside the fact that defendant had given a false name, we disagree. Poggi had seen him driving the car. When he failed to produce a driver's license, probable cause existed to arrest him for the Class C misdemeanor of failing to present a driver's license. ORS 807.570(1)(b)(A).[4]See State v. Samuel, 104 Or.App. 642, 802 P.2d 700 (1990). There is no reason to hold that an officer must determine by a records check the status of a person's driving privileges in Oregon before making a probable cause arrest for failing to present a driver's license.
*1175 Defendant next argues that his conviction for failing to present a driver's license is invalid, because a person who has never been licensed in Oregon cannot be prosecuted under ORS 807.570 for failing to present a driver's license. In support of this argument, defendant contends: (1) Were it otherwise, ORS 807.570(1)(a) would be "totally redundant with" ORS 807.010, which would be a meaningless legislative act; (2) a person cannot present a driver's license unless there is one in existence to present; (3) the exculpatory defense under ORS 807.570(3) assumes that there is a valid license; and (4) the two statutes, when read together, are ambiguous and ORS 807.570 must be strictly construed. It may be that a person could be convicted of violating both ORS 807.010 and ORS 807.570. The language of the statutes indicates that they are intended to further different societal and law enforcement objectives. ORS 807.010 was intended to preclude persons from driving unless they are appropriately licensed. On the other hand, ORS 807.570 was intended primarily to aid law enforcement officers in the identification of stopped drivers, in order to ensure that they do not evade responsibility for their conduct by falsifying their identity to the officer. ORS 807.010 and ORS 807.570 are not redundant. We reject defendant's contentions.
When the officer arrested defendant, all of the elements of failure to present a license had occurred. Having been lawfully stopped, he did not, on request, present and deliver a license. ORS 807.570(1)(b)(A). The officer was under no obligation to determine in advance the status of defendant's license. Defendant had the burden at trial of producing a driver's license that was valid at the time of his arrest. He failed to do so and was properly convicted of failing to present a driver's license.
Defendant also assigns error to the court's denial of his motion to suppress the contents of his wallet. The state argues that the warrantless search was proper as a search incident to a lawful arrest. In State v. Boyd, 101 Or.App. 649, 792 P.2d 462 (1990), we said:
"A search incident to arrest `must be reasonable in time, space and intensity in view of all the facts.' State v. Caraher, 293 Or 741, 759, 653 P2d 942 (1982). The purpose of the search must be to obtain relevant evidence of the crime prompting arrest, to prevent destruction of evidence, or to protect the arresting officer. State v. Baker, 100 Or App 31, 33, 784 P2d [446] 447 (1989)." 101 Or.App. at 652, 792 P.2d 462.
Defendant was arrested for failing to present a driver's license. He argues that the search of his wallet for evidence of identity exceeded the lawful scope of a search incident to an arrest for that crime, because identity of the license holder and the existence of a license are not relevant evidence of the crime of failing to present a license. That is correct, so far as it goes. State v. Nelson, 102 Or.App. 106, 109, 792 P.2d 486 (1990); State v. Scheer, 99 Or. App. 80, 83, 781 P.2d 859 (1989). However, the state argues that the officer also searched the wallet because he was looking for weapons. He feared that it "could" contain razor blades. The law allows a "limited search for weapons to protect the officer or to prevent escape." State v. Owens, 302 Or. 196, 200, 729 P.2d 524 (1986). However, Poggi did not articulate any reason to believe that the wallet contained anything other than defendant's identification or other personal effects normally contained in a wallet. Without some reasonable basis to believe that the wallet contained a weapon, he had no justification for the search of the wallet. See State v. Jones, 103 Or.App. 316, 319, 797 P.2d 385 (1990); State v. Schellhorn, 95 Or.App. 297, 301, 769 P.2d 221 (1989). It was error for the trial court to deny the motion to suppress.
Finally, defendant makes various arguments about the weight of the evidence supporting his speeding conviction. Our review is de novo. ORS 46.340(4); ORS 153.575(1); State v. Mohler, 102 Or.App. 75, 77, 792 P.2d 1239 (1990). All of his contentions are without merit and do not require discussion.
*1176 Convictions for failing to present a license and for speeding affirmed; conviction for giving false information to a police officer reversed and remanded for new trial.
NOTES
[1]  Defendant also contends that his prosecution for failure to present a license violates the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment and Article I, section 20, of the Oregon Constitution. However, that issue was not raised in the trial court, and we decline to consider it for the first time on appeal. See State v. King, 307 Or. 332, 338, 768 P.2d 391 (1989); State v. Reed, 101 Or.App. 277, 280 n. 3, 790 P.2d 551, rev. den. 310 Or. 195, 795 P.2d 554 (1990).
