Why?One should inform if pulled over.
I thought one was supposed to.Why?
I know you are if your the driver. I'm not sure about a passenger though.I thought one was supposed to.
Yes! If you have a LTC. Technically you are not obligated to inform police if you don't have a LTC, but it's always best to de-escalate when ever possible.I thought one was supposed to.

Not long after I first got my Texas LTC, I had forgotten to give them my LTC. He came back after running my DL and asked about it. That's how I know that they know. I didn't get a ticket then either, in fact it's rare I get one. Might be that I don't give them any lip.On OP Live, they typically always ask passengers for IDs.
I figure it would be better to tell them than let them find out you have an LTC.
Maybe that's just me.
ETA: I was typing my response and got Ninja'd, lol.
As far as I know you are not required to ID as a passenger in a traffic stop only the driver is. They can ask, but you're not required to ID. Of course if they suspect you are committing a crime then you are.On OP Live, they typically always ask passengers for IDs.

I wouldn't either. I have been in this specific situation before and didn't say a word. Was never asked and definitely didn't feel the need to inform.As a passenger I wouldn't provide anything unless asked.

Welcome to the Forum!Why would a passenger at a traffic stop provide any info? Did you guys just hold up a convenience store? It is amazing how many people are willing to give up their constitutional rights.
