Indeed, however acceptable ID always has an actual date of birth on it, so someone producing ID to show they are over 18 is at the same time also proving precisely what age they are.

There are very few 18 year olds who actually look older than 25, certainly not to people whose job it is to make that assessment on a daily basis. That’s why age 25 was chosen.
