Just wondering if I can drive without my license on me?

They will write you a ticket for 10€.

But if you’re not a German citizen they’ll probably detain you for identification.

But I can still drive as long as I don't get caught?

No, if you drive and dont get caught, the police will come to you.

You can do everything if you don’t get caught ;)

If you don’t get caught who is going to stop you? I am not sure I understand the question. 😄

There is no such thing as "don't get caught" in Germany.

They simply continue to chase you until they got you, or maybe you choose to leave the country, or maybe you choose to leave this world...

Yes, most cars drive with petrol, not with a license.
