I will be moving to NC in a year of so, and am a CCW holder in TX where I live now (and will soon be a CCW holder from AZ too).
I've followed some threads on other forums on notifying LEO's that you are a CCW holder and am carrying or not. I know in NC that you have to inform - we also have to in TX too. I don't have a problem with that. I'm not here to start a flame war over should you should you not, so don't bother if you don't agree. I have a practical question....
It was said that the CCW is tied to your DL and also your car registration so if you are pulled over, the LEO knows if you have a CCW or not. Ok, we live in the information age. As far as I know it's not in TX, but I imagine in TX that they can find out the owner of the car from the license plate pull up the owner's DL so in TX they'd likely know if I have CCW or not here too.
So what happens if my wife (who does not have a CCW) is driving my car and is pulled over? Are both or my cars tagged with that fact? I don't see a need to hassle her with CCW issues.
Thanks,
