Re: HB410 status
The criminals are still allowed to lie. So how does the question help the police?

Re: HB410 status
It's sad the state senate surrendered to fearmongering. MPA doesn't show up on a DL check.Charles L. Cotton wrote:BTW, the floor amendment that prevented LEO's from being notified that a person had a CHL when they check their DL status doomed the bill. That was the primary justification for removing the duty to disclose a CHL. There was no reason to penalize a CHL if they forgot, or were nervous during a traffic stop, when the officer was going to be advised anyway. Whether you agree with it or not, like it or not, HB410 was not going to pass with that provision. The Senate committee had already blasted the Senate companion bill and it didn't have the 410 floor amendment.
Chas.
Time to ramp up my advocacy for Florida, Utah and other nonresident CHL. They aren't linked to the Texas DL so no pesky notification.

Re: HB410 status
You're right. I was just pointing out that part of HB 410 wasn't completely forgotten. Anyway we still have to see what happens in the senate.

Re: HB410 status
I hope it passes but until then I will keep suggesting to friends and coworkers to get a Florida, Utah or other nonresident license.
When it comes time to renew my CHL, I won't bother if there's still a requirement to notify. Someone with a peace officer license doesn't have to notify. Someone carrying under MPA doesn't have to notify. Even someone carrying illegally doesn't have to notify, based on court decisions about self-incrimination. If they don't fix the problem I refuse to renew my CHL. I'll carry under MPA and reciprocity.
