Why not bring your phone?

Your SIM/IMEI are tied to your ID. The police can visit you at home later. Details depend on the country.

If you have an iPhone you can go ahead and try Flight Mode right now. You'll see that it disconnects from WiFi and disables cellular. NFC, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi stay powered on, Bluetooth stays active. Yes, latest iOS has Bluetooth tracking protection on by default (varies by country, illegal in some), but it is not completely safe. I'm not sure about NFC and Wi-Fi.
If you power the phone off it is unlikely to turn off the radios - they are needed for "find my iPhone" and similar features on Google and Samsung Galaxy phones.

Overall you can't be confident that your phone does not reveal your location and identity to "law enforcement", especially in places where police is well equipped to track you.

iPhone clearly says it is findable after power off

And they don’t need that, they can just arrest you

I run faster than cunts in riot gear. I wouldn't be typing this otherwise.
