OUESTION ?
New Travelers law took effect Sept 1 that says any Texan can carry a concealed handgun in their vehicle while out and about regardless of crossing of county line or staying overnight as old traveling defined etc etc....
Now does the fact that there is a travelers law drop the requirement for me to show my CHL to the LEO on the traffic stops ?
Or did that Sept 1 rule state that the "traveler" has to tell the LEO they have a firearm in the vehicle ?
Anyone know if that was brought up ?
Good question.
Having had a CHL for so long I didn't even think about it.
If stopped I will present my CHL with my TDL as I understand that nothing has changed in this regard.
Plus the offense will probably minor as in 120 in a 70 or some such thing that will only land me a warning.
Seriously, I read the law a few weeks ago and didn't see this mentioned. This law will probably modified to force them to do so.
Once again, very good question!
