If you have someone’s ID and the police find it on your person…they can charge you with identity theft…or possession of another persons ID…and you could possibly have to go to court to argue your case and have the charges dropped. If you are holding someone’s ID, be sure you don’t get in trouble and that it’s someone you know well.

For me, It is not illegal to carry someone's id if know personally that person, example your parents, or even your friends. It is up to that person if he or she allows you to carry his or her id. As simple as that. We should not complicate things.

No. You may be carrying it because you went out with your buddy the night before and he gave it to you for safekeeping or many other reasons. We shouldn't assume the worst and judge and punish someone for it.

It is not illegal to be in possession of someone else's ID. It is illegal to try and use it as your own. And if you do not have a legitimate reason for having it, it can be a flag to the authorities. They will ask a lot of questions about it.

NO!!! If you are simply carrying it for another person. However, if you try to pass yourself off as that identity, then that it illegal.

It is illegal, yes. UNLESS, you got the consent to hold on to that ID from that person. Then it is not illegal.

It depends on your placement, and under what circumstances you will be carrying a personal document, as the suggested phrase does not constitute a crime.
