I don't know how things work in Texas, but up here in New Yorkistan the prosecutors will frequently bargain speeding tickets down to lower speeds or in many cases to non-moving violations, to prevent an insurance hit for the speeding ticket. Go to court and see what they offer.....

It still is somewhat....but it has lost some of its status to some of the affluent suburbs.

In south florida and I have a concealed carry permit. If I am pulled over by law enforcement do I have to tell them I have a firearm on me?

Advise the officer that you have a valid CCW. Advise the officer where the loaded firearm is on your person (..without reaching for it or moving), and ask the officer how he/she would like you to proceed. Do exactly as instructed and you will be fine. |

What does the Florida law say? In NY State, we are not obligated to inform an officer that we are CCW, but I understand that some states require it to be declared up front when dealing with an officer.....

I cannot for the life of me understand why you wouldn't immediately disclose as suggested by Sedan_Clan.

I carry....and I would let the LEO know regardless. South Carolina is a pretty liberal state when it comes to guns. But my brother said he is always informed when he comes across us.
Our Sherrif actually made national news a couple years back because of a statement he made. He said he encouraged all law abiding residents to carry for their protection because sometimes they may not be able to respond quick enough to an emergency as it's a big rural county. I thought I had a lot of guns, but at my in-laws in the NC mountains, there isn't a room in the house that doesn't have a firearm available although I'm talking specifically about shotguns and rifles. The handguns are kept put up. I keep only one handgun and a tactical shotgun available inside my house....everything else is locked up in the safe. But we don't have small kids in the house, and no grandchildren yet for awhile.

Plus I'm really big into gun safety, and I shoot regularly at the range our police use as my brother, father-in-law, and Uncle are all active duty.
And I train most of the county deputies in advanced hand to hand conflict at our Aikido school. Well those who want to continue their training after the academy anyway.

</sarcasm> Oh, and he wants to risk getting shot, too, when his nerves get the best of him in a tense encounter and he makes some sort of abrupt movement accidentally. Yeah! That sounds about right. |

The only possible reason, short of psychopathy, would be some twisted fantasy of almost getting into a gun battle with a cop.

There is a commonly-held belief among the 2A folks in NY State (not to be confused with the City of the same name that has even wackier gun laws) that concealed means concealed. They believe that there is no need to volunteer the information when exercising a federal right for the very reason that Sedan_Clan has sarcastically outlined, but you are obligated to answer honestly if the officer asks. I keep my CCW card right next to my drivers license in my wallet. If I was ever stopped (carrying or not), I would hand both to the officer so the card is in their hand before I verbally mention the "trigger" word. If you knew how many hoops and background checks you have to jump through to get/keep a CCW in NY State, just having the card in the officer's hand has to be worth something in diffusing a tense situation knowing that he/she is dealing with a well-vetted person. (FWIW, NY State is *not* a must-issue state, and we have ZERO reciprocity with CCW licenses from *any* other state...not even a lockbox in the trunk passing through.) Since the State Police are the agency charged with tracking all CCW licenses, I would go into any traffic stop situation under the impression that this tidbit is flashing in big red letters on a computer screen in the patrol car from just punching my plate number in before the stop. Best to be up front, carrying or not.....
