It is a string for the DL data. You must be reading a sample as there is no data in it.
ie - DCSLASTNAME = DCS is the "header" for last name - then the next XXX character should be the last name that is on the license.

Research will take you here: https://www.aamva.org/FL-ITN-DriverRelatedCredentialPrintSolutionExh3-022016/ for the standard and how to parse the data out of the DL barcode.

They are right you're just getting an example. If you scan your actual I.D. it will bring back your personal details.

An example looks like this:

"@\n\x1e\rANSI 636000090002DL00410278ZV03190008DLDAQT64235789\nDCSSAMPLE\nDDEN\nDACMICHAEL\nDDFN\nDADJOHN\nDDGN\nDCUJR\nDCAD\nDCBK\nDCDPH\nDBD06062016\nDBB06061986\nDBA12102024\nDBC1\nDAU068 in\nDAYBRO\nDAG2300 WEST BROAD STREET\nDAIRICHMOND\nDAJVA\nDAK232690000 \nDCF2424244747474786102204\nDCGUSA\nDCK123456789\nDDAF\nDDB06062008\nDDC06062009\nDDD1\rZVZVA01\r"
