What’s amazing to me is that society views carding as wrong, rightfully so in my opinion.
However our laws allow the police to stop anyone driving at any time for no reason and demand ID… and a breath sample, upto and including two hours after you’ve driven.
I wish we didn’t live in a “papers please” country.
