I'm in Australia and while the laws are similar, the way they are enforced means that if you don't want to spend hours on the side of the road or a night in lockup while you prove your story then an abundance of caution is your best option. A very guilty until proven innocent system.

"you're not guilty, we just have to detain you while we investigate"

Yeah, sure, meanwhile I'm put into a cell... Like someone who is guilty. Thanks.
