I realize that Europeans accept the concept of a government issued ID, but this
is the USA, and Americans have a long tradition (thank goodness) of opposing
such police state tactics.

Bill,
   Another sweeping generalization .......where is your basis for this ?

   In England you don't even need to carry your drivers license when driving !
The police will give you 7 days to produce drivers lic.,insurance and the
equivilent of registration at ANY police station YOU specify.

   So tell me what national ID was I supposed to be carrying ?
   Give same info for Dutch,French,Belgians,etc etc !!!!!!!!!!

I thought red tape was bad in Europe until I came to the US.What do you call
the current operations of most state patrols along Interstate highways is as
oppressive as the Gaurdia Civil in Spain(during Franco's regime).Don't you
worry about maybe you're doing something wrong whenever you see a state 
trooper these days ??
