Not to derail...but...does anyone know if the requirement to inform is being fought at all?
The requirement to inform was eased by the lessening of the penalty.
I can't quote exactly the before and after,,,
But the language was recently altered to make it less immediate.
Also the penalty was lessened.
Apparently a few people filed formal complaints against write-ups,,,
Where they had informed the officer they were legal carriers,,,
Just not as quickly as some of the cops would have liked.
I had the experience as a passenger,,,
In past situations I as a passenger have been asked for ID,,,
So when my buddy was stopped I went ahead and got my DL and carry permit out.
The officer talked to my friend for ten minutes before he addressed me,,,
At that time I handed him my DL and CWP together,,,
There wasn't anything said about it at all.
