- Only in the US. In Germany we can drink at 16 but drive at 18. - It’s funny because my partner came up with this, and she is British with the similar drinking rules to Germany (we are in US now). - Once you have a driver’s license or permit, do you use some other form of ID to check age for drinking in Germany? - Just Personalausweis, it’s an ID card. Not everyone has a drivers license, especially in bigger cities many people don’t have any. 
- I’m French and most of the time we have our ID on us as well as driver’s licence 
 
 
- Maybe yours is. Mine is never used that way. And I have other government issued IDs for proving identity, so I rarely use my license for that. 
- In Winnipeg we have to show our ID before we’re even allowed to enter the liquor store 
- No? - NO?
