I've only had to show ID once after my CHL. It was when my brother and I encountered a thief stealing aluminum and copper at my Dad's business. When the first officer arrived and asked for ID I gave him both. He took both, stuck them in his belt and went to the thief who was on the ground. Second officer arrived and asks for my ID and retrieves it when I let him know first LEO has it. He said he didn't need my CHL and handed it back and writes in his little notebook. While we're waiting for tow truck to take thief's vehicle and after the second officer is gone our conversation gets around to CHL and he says he always gives warnings unless it's a really over the top offense. He said he never knows when one of those peoplee would be there to have his back in a tight situation. Sounded good to me.
