Even if it is a law for people to carry ID cards, i do not see why it is necessary to routinely stop peoples vehicles and ask for their ID cards unless if some wrong doing is suspected. Nobody should be above the law... i read a report from the papers last week where a lady mentioned that their vehicle was spared a delay of ID card searches because one of their passengers was a police officer. The Gambians need a break from this ID card harassment. God Bless and Peace Be Upon All.
