This is incorrect if you mean to expand the statement nationwide. It varies by state but driving (sitting in a car) is not the only time. While some states require only stating your name, others require production of ID. Whether or not these statutes would survive a court challenge is an interesting question but I would not wish to go through the process. At a minimum check what your state requires (if anything) and make your own decision. With regard to OC, if there is a minimum age requirement and you have an appearance that makes it a close call, a request to produce proof of age might be upheld. In Virginia may anyone OC in a restaurant (alcohol restriction) or only those with CC permits?

A ID is only required by law when driving. While OCing you need not to have an ID. Thus you can refuse to show or provide one to anyone including a police officer. When CC it is required to have your permit and a photo ID on your person at all times.

There are some localities/municipalities (in VA but I can't recall which ones at the moment) that have "failure to I.D." laws on the books.
