And here is a scenario we are curious about.
First, let's say an officer pulls me over for an out tail light or speeding. Let's say that both my wife and I are carrying. (we both have permits) We have chosen NOT to volunteer that information to the officer. The stop proceeds as normal, but let's say towards the end, the officer asks if we have any weapons in the car. So, here are our questions.
First, I won't ever lie to a cop. So, I would tell him that yes, we have weapons in the car, but we both have our CCW permits.
-Would you also tell the officer where the weapons are located?
-At that point, is the officer allowed to ask us both to step out of the car in order to disarm us?
-Is the officer allowed to search us or our vehicle?
Same scenario but only I am armed, and my wife is not, so I tell the officer I am armed and am a CCW license holder after he asks if we have weapons in the car.
-If the officer has me step out in order to disarm me, is the officer allowed to ask my wife to step out and search her?
