Re: Friend stopped by DPS and scolded

I didnt bother reading all the posts for and against presenting your CHL, but I can say that I have to agree with those saying to show it. Yes, the law says that if you arent carrying, you dont have to show it, but really, how hard is it to take one more piece of plastic out of your wallet and give it to the officer? Myself, Im still waiting for it to get here, but when it does, this will be my personal policy. Along with turning on the dome light and having my hands in plain sight. Regardless of the stories out there, if you get pulled over by the police, you were probably doing something to deserve it. Dont make it worse for yourself. Cooperation and courtesy just might get you a warning and not a ticket. The officer is doing his/her job, and the easier you make it, the easier it will be.

Heck its kind of like of bragging. "look what I have officer" (plastic, not gun!) :lol::

Im also going to get one of those wallets that have the removable plastic sleave for ID cards, and keep them together just for this.
