I must've missed it. Sorry.

This whole thing is a CF, in my opinion.
1. WHY no license plates on the RENTAL CAR?
2. In Germany people must carry Ausweiss AND Fuhrschein. ID and Driver's license. WHY NO PASSPORT? why no driver license in German?
3. Why did DB let this guy come to the US w/o an international driving license? It takes 30 minutes to get on in the City hall in Moehringen, where the DB headquarters is. I used to pass by the place daily.
ALL THREE ARE AT FAULT.
The guy should be ticketed for no ID, the rental car company should be ticketed for no plates and the plant should get a strongly-worded letter from the DMV telling it like it is:
Just follow the same law you would follow in Germany. Nothing more.
Curiously, no one mentioned insurance proof, probably because it was a rental car.
Enough blame to go around.
I don't believe in falling all over the MB people, even if they do provide jobs. They got tax breaks up the magiggy for being there, they can follow the same rules they would follow in South Africa, Germany, Czech Republic etc etc etc.
