So I've been pulled over plenty of times (lead foot) but this was my first time getting pulled over with my CCW (go me!). I live in small town Texas so I didn't expect any issues, but I'm left handed, carry on my left hip, and my wallet is in my left back pocket, so I was kinda nervous.Cop: Good afternoon I pulled you over for speeding back there, may I please see your license and proof of insurance?Me: Yes but I just want to let you know that I have my CDL and I am carrying.Cop: with a confused look Do you mean that you have your CHL?Me: Huh??Cop: You said CDL. I think you meant CHL..Me: Oh yeah. CHL. I do NOT have a CDL but I DO have my CHL.My friend: Starts rolling laughing in passenger seat.Cop: laughs it off Well I'm gonna make you a deal, you don't reach for yours I won't reach for mine. Work for you?Me: Sounds like a great plan!Cop: So cab I see your license and proof of insurance?Me: Yes but my I carry on my left hip and my wallet is in my left back pocket.Cop: Okay no problem just leave one hand on the wheel and grab your wallet.That's actually kinda difficult when you're nervous.He asks what I carry and we talk guns for a second and then the radio blares out about reports of an angry shirtless man (it was really cold that day) with a gun at an apartment building (which was right by my house, in fact I saw the guy they were talking about on my way to walmart. But he didn't have a gun at that point) and the rest of the stop went pretty quickly. He did say that he was going to give me a warning right after I gave him my CHL. Overall good experience! via /r/CCW https://ift.tt/2qx8hjg
