It seems to me that, absent authority to do so, a DPS Trooper is prohibited from doing so. It also seems that the Governor or Attorney General could probably prohibit the practice.Keith B wrote:Some times, but usually if the plate and vehicle match and comes up clean then the suspicion is less that the vehicle may stolen.AEA wrote:Abraham wrote:Do they also run VIN numbers to be certain the vehicle being driven by the CHL holder isn't stolen?EXCELLENT POINT
As to the serial number running, I believe it is a stretch for a LEO to take it there, even after disarming a CHL for there own perceived safety. What needs to be done is get rid of the disarming capability and the serial number running will go away also. A few well stated letters to the DA of the county and talk of civil rights violations may also get this type of 'papiere bitte' tactics stopped.
