Since identifying yourself is not considered self incrimination, Miranda i.e. the 5th Amendment does not apply.ScottDLS wrote:Can you remain silent if you ARE arrested or do they just give you that Miranda warning for show?WTR wrote:You can if you are not arrested.ScottDLS wrote:May you remain silent?Jusme wrote:WTR wrote:You are only required to provide valid ID if you are under arrest.SewTexas wrote:I thought you weren't required to carry id? if that's the case, this makes no sense.

Even then you are not required to carry or show a government issued ID. You are required to truthfully identify. In Texas it's called failure to identify, and can be added to any charge, if it is prove that you provided false identity. When I was a LEO, the county where I worked would add the six months on to whatever sentence you were given.
