During a traffic stop, how should you inform an officer that you have a CCDW permit and are carrying a weapon?

  1. Immediately shout it out

  2. Not disclose unless asked

  3. Calmly and verbally inform the officer

  4. Only show if the officer notices your weapon

The correct answer is: Calmly and verbally inform the officer

When informing an officer that you have a CCDW permit and are carrying a weapon during a traffic stop, it is important to do so calmly and verbally. This approach helps to ensure the situation remains controlled and safe for both you and the officer. Immediately shouting it out can escalate the situation unnecessarily, while not disclosing unless asked or only showing if the officer notices your weapon may lead to confusion and potentially dangerous misunderstandings. Therefore, calmly and verbally informing the officer is the best practice in this scenario.
