Are all us citizens required by law to carry ID cards?

Sort of. Everyone is required to provide satisfactory identification to the police when requested. If you are unable to show ID, the police have the option of holding you in custody until they are able to ascertain your identity. If no one can bring your ID to the police station, then a computer search will be made of available databases to confirm the information you have given orally and this process includes checking digital photographs to see if they are of you. Keep in mind that everyone is required by law to have a drivers license on their person while operating a motor vehicle. ID is also required to enter the boarding area of an airport and to enter a federal building.

Do small town police officers have state wide arrest authority?

From what i have heard, a police officer is also a peace officer. Peace officers have the power to make warrentless arrest if a crime is committed in their presence. It's really nation wide. If a cop or another peace officer with the powers of arrestsees someone killing somebody or breaking into a house or robbing someone, they are perfectly able to arrest that person on the spot. Even civilians have this power (citizens arrest}. To avoid alot of hassle, the officer generally will after the arrest call the local law enforcement, identify themselves as a peace officer, show the proper id {badge, id card and a weapon if they have one}and then make a statement.
