[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 2105098, member: 26737"] I don't get pulled over very often (it helps if you don't drive like a jackass), but when I do, I always hand over both my OKDL and my SDA license. In every case, the officer has asked if I was carrying, and I always answered truthfully (normally I have one in the center console), which is almost always as far as it goes. There were two times it wasn't--once, not long after the SDA went into effect and before the procedures had been finalized, I got pulled over on the Turner Turnpike. After I informed the Trooper that I was carrying and that my Baby Browning was in my back pocket, he asked me to get out of the car, then asked me to put my hands on my head while he extracted the pistol. He was very polite and professional about it--but it just about freaked out my mother, whom I was taking to Tulsa. ;) The second time was just a few years ago; I got stopped in a training stop for a show pony (yeah, right, you stopped me because my fog lights were on in inclement conditions). The difference in professionalism between the OHP and this twerp was striking; she was terse, and ordered me to keep my hands on the steering wheel since I'd admitted to having a gun in the car. When she came back she said she'd noticed some fog over by the interstate (yeah, right), so I was free to go. Her FTO wasn't doing a very good job, IMHO... [/QUOTE]
