That's true for Denmark too: Before the Schengen treaty danes could travel to Norway and Sweden with no need for an ID. Now we must carry photo ID even within Denmark. Sure, no _passport_ is required - a drivers license will do as well. In Denmark the Schengen treaty is interpreted as the police can request a governmental issued photo ID at *any* time. In reality it's mostly used for "criminally looking" persons like those with dark skin. :-P - Jonas - -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ - Enden er nær: http://www.shibumi.org/eoti.htm -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDvql8n7DbMsAkQLgRAlbYAJ9/tgSm+qJyIpgLRQ3bHIQLBkSh7wCfdIGX eCUUF1jTQd8SddIp4P1OqyA= =d46+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
