Duty to Announce?

Honestly...in Oregon, you have to make your own decision. Most would go with, as I said earlier, Don't Lie if Asked. Whether you bring it to their attention or not, is between you and your conscience. But make sure you do it for the right reasons, don't do it because you think you have to, do it if you feel the situation warrants it.

As for the guy above, while he is probably right, his window down an inch theory probably just pisses off cops more, so if they were just going to tell you to slow down and leave you alone, they gonna ticket you cuz you hacked them off for no reason...SPEED LIMITS EXIST, JUST LIKE GUN SAFETY. my two cents...

Recognizing, of course, that when your license is run in Oregon the fact that you have an Oregon CHL shows - or is reported, in most departments.

Or so I'm told. :lol:

I have found that your CPL in WA is in a different database than your DL. While LE CAN ask if you have a CPL, if they do not specifically ask, they will NOT be given the information. Why waste their time and yours when there is no need?

Certainly my theory. But it's a decision everyone needs to make for himself, obviously. :lol:
