If stopped for a traffic violation (or any other reason that is a non-felony), assuming the cop runs my license and it comes back that I have a carry permit, if the officer asks me if I am armed or have weapons in the vehicle can I cite the 2nd and 4th Amendments i.e. I reply "I am sorry Officer but my attorney has advised me to not answer any questions except those relating to the initial reason for you stopping me". Or is there an obligation under TN law to reveal if I am strapped?
Thanks
