In France I must show a paper (not smartphone) printed permit, each 
sortie one different paper.  The receiver of it (police) takes it in 
his/her gloved hands then s/he passes it back to me. I do not have 
gloves.  I wished the receiver did not use the same gloves for each 
pereson who passes by and delivers that paper to him.
