Actually the rules were followed. Correct documentation was to hand, just not believed. I think the differences between the grandmother and daughter were too much to rely on documentation. The documentation was accepted on the departure side.
As I said, "of course everyone understands why it is done, and if they miss a real case then there will be hell to pay."
No one should have a real problem with the checking. It could be done better I guess.
The story was related to show it happens the other way as well.
When I used to travel to France on business in a bright red 3.2l V6 Audi convertible I was always stopped at customs. Without fail. They would always stop 2 other cars with me and park one in front and one behind. The poor so and sos always got searched because I was there. Sometimes I would try and pick who I got in the queue with so I knew who I would be pulled along for a bit of fun.
