How many 18 to 22 year old US citizens carry their passport but leave their DL at home???
She did that deliberately to be a pest.
She had a DL and probably on her.
One who a) may not have a DL (my son got his at 21) b) just moved from New York and is waiting for the new one to arrive in Oklahoma c) who had just returned from a trip to Canada prior to leaving for Oklahoma and there are others that are possible, as well.
I do carry my ID with me, along with my DOD one and my CC. I have no warrants and see no reason why, unless I am behaving in a suspicious manner, any LEO should have access to any of them. But, that is my opinion. If it is the law, I guess I would have to go along with the demand.
I thought that she said she had just moved there?
She clearly had reviewed the laws and requirements, far better than the LEOs. Do NOT slight her for that—it’s the LEO’s job to know this.
