Year 2011, I was touring Berlin with a friend, and a policeman asked us to show our ID.
So, tourists need to carry passport at all times?
How'd police know who is a tourist?
- zaarn 9y agoSpotting tourists is usually not hard for someone who lives at the location. Additionally, it could just have been chance. In general, yes, you should have your ID/passport on you, but there is no real punishment for not having it other than being required to later show up at a police station and/or being escorted by the policeman to your apartment/hotel to show your ID. A bigger problem is usually not having a drivers license on you, that gets some of the people in the police riled up (but again, no real punishment as long as you show up later at the police station)
- Double_a_92 9y ago> A bigger problem is usually not having a drivers license on you Why? What about people that just don't have / need a drivers license?
