Police control
Police control is a term from German police law . It serves exclusively to avert danger . The regulations for the police control aimed at the state police under the provisions in the respective State and the Federal Police after the Federal Police Act .
A police check is through
- Personal checks ( establishing the identity of people, checking under immigration law, etc.),
- Checking the authenticity of documents ,
- Inspection of vehicles in terms of police law (no traffic control) and the items carried,
as well as by comparing the data with the inventory of the wanted files . For this purpose, depending on the federal state, it is also possible to search people and vehicles.
A police control is neither a criminal procedural control point ( criminal procedure law , § 111 StPO) nor a traffic control according to § 36 V 1 StVO ( traffic law ). Some police laws also provide for checkpoints in accordance with hazard prevention law (e.g. § 12 I No. 4 PolG NRW), to which the term police control applies, unlike the criminal procedural checkpoint.
