[QUOTE="NikatKimber, post: 1124731, member: 423"] My opinion, sticky situation. What did the officer mean by "doesn't count?" Who knows. Most of the officers I've talked to about it are all for CC, so he may have meant in a practical sense, "in the trunk doesn't count." But you know beyond a doubt you were legal with a CHL and a loaded handgun in the trunk. What else matters? As to the notification. If I'm stopped, as in pulled over, I'll wait to do anything, keeping my hands visible, until the officer gets to my window, and inform them then. In the case posted, since there wasn't a tactful discreet way of notifying the officer as he "breezed by," I would have gotten my wallet with CHL and DL, and not gotten the insurance right then, when the officer got back to my door, inform him then. Tip, I don't put my insurance in the glove box anymore, as I do occasionally have a gun there, or my wife may stow hers there. I have it in the center console where I can get it easily. I've also heard people keeping it in a strap on the sun visor for easy access too. ******************** Just saw your post: Unless one of the officers on here recommends doing that, I will recommend NOT yelling it out. Just get what you can quickly and easily (wallet probably), and wait for the officer to come back to your window before reaching/digging for insurance. [/QUOTE]
