No, but in a pub you could expect a barman to remove the keys of a driver who is clearly drunk.
If said driver is arrested for DUI (which is sort of a bad example since one can usually see when someone is real drunk, apart from seing who is a licence holder and who isnt) will the landlord get a ticket? Or should rather all other drivers be required to do an alcohol test before driving?

I would like to maintain the status of "innocent until proven guilty".

Ag bis mentioned the "FBO" - to the best of my knowledge there is no FBO in Schönhagen where the airplane was based. And if an FBO would like to see my licence I´d be reluctant to show it to them. Not their business. Period.

What I want to say is:

beware what you wish for.

1984 is way beyond us and still people want more stringent rules, more observation/oversight etcetc. Scary.

Also, we all know we have to carry our licence (amongst other things) and I have had it checked several times a year
Yes we know and we do (I hope !) OTOH, does that or any other reg keep the bad boys away ?
