Nice read!

>>Queen Elizabeth II doesn’t even have a driver’s license. As Queen, she doesn’t need one

Didn't know that either.

The king/queen's passport situation is also weird. British passports ask for passage "in the name of Her Majesty", but she theoretically doesn't need one since she can ask herself.

Not to disagree, just to say the phrasing IIRC is that HM 'requests and requires' (that the bearer of the passport be allowed to pass 'without let or hindrance', and so on).
