[QUOTE="doctorjj, post: 1123520, member: 7292"] Got stopped at a random check point. I stopped, rolled down my window and as the officer breezed by my door he said "License and insurance" and continued to the back of my car, I presume to check my tag. I pulled out my DL and my CC permit and had them in my left hand. I was leaning over looking in my glovebox for my insurance. I didn't notice him walk back up as I was busy digging, but he says, "So, are you carrying?" And I say, "Actually it's in the trunk". He said "Well, that doesn't count". Then he says "By the way, next time, if you are actually carrying, you should tell the officer that you have a permit and you are carrying as soon as you come in contact with the officer". First off, someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought I needed to have a CCW permit in order to carry chamber loaded weapons in my car, even if they are in the trunk. So, technically, my loaded G22 in the trunk DID count. Second, I'm not sure at what point I was supposed to inform the officer. Should I have stuck my head out and yelled it to him as he's looking at my tag? I was intending to tell him as soon as he got back to my window, but he got back to my window and saw my CCW permit before I knew it. Anyway, he wasn't rude or mean or anything and I just said yes sir, no sir, etc and went on my way. Any thoughts from the board? [/QUOTE]
