You would be OK because you still have yours.
In the time that you have had it, how many times have you been required to present it?
Who was it who wanted to see your ID?
Could you have presented an alternative...say a driving licence, a passport?
I carried ID on a daily basis when I was working. I cannot say that my identity was ever challenged...or that I was ever asked to prove who I was.
So I do not see any point at this stage of my life in being required to carry an ID card...but if you WANT to carry one, if it makes you feel in any way safer, then that is fine...but don't make them compulsory because I won't use one.
