Is it necessary to carry documents such as driving licence, insurance certificate and MoT test certificate with us these days? Years ago, I heard of someone who was on holiday and was told by the police to produce his documents at a police station within a fairly short time. He did not have them with him so he had to go home early, thus cutting short his holiday. Ever since then I have carried such documents with me on holiday, but I can't believe in these online days it is still necessary. I would be glad of your advice.
