How strict are the laws in Norway?
ridiculously strict, but its "bent" differently. binging culture is very ingrained here, so illegal moonshining is usually tolerated, so are the products, even if carried by minors police will only pour it out and not make a big deal out of it. if your an adult keeping moonshine, its usually ignored.
weed on the other hand, ive had friends of mine convicted on _particles in their shoelaces_
i dunno why, but theyre fanatical about it. they dont usually hunt for smokers, cus even here thats impossible warrant-wise etc, BUT they watch dealers like hawks, and they love to stop people on their way out of such places, if theyre certain enough that thats where you've been.
as suggested by the shoelaces, there is NO minimum "okay" ammount, like in many countries you can get away with "up to 5 grammes" and stuff.
in my experience theyre likely to fine you 1000 krones a gramme they catch you with, roughly.
in fact, youll pay bigger fines for carrying a 5'er around, than you would if you assaulted someone, in front of witnesses (not counting injuries).
