Picked up my CCDW last werk here in Boone County and have not been without my new SR9c since becoming legal!
Have many friends on the force, am in no way in the law enforcement field, but why would you not inform them
that you were carrying? It is probably my fault if I get pulled over, but still have nothing to hide either.
They probably will appreciate the up front honesty, and might even be lenient with you. All of the deputies
I know, are extremely pro-carry...so unless hiding something, again I ask, why would one not be open and
upfront?? Just curious to other's train of thought on this topic?
Thanks for all the quick feedback, I knew about it showing on the plates. Nothing to hide here, as stated above just no reason to add any more steps into the equation. Im in fayette county, not all the cops here are gun guys for sure.
I am normally very much in the do not inform unless asked camp but I might consider it if it were linked to my DL. If the cop was going to know anyway I might go ahead and hand him my permit.

Here's the problem < Snip> safety.
When you are pulled over, they know that you have a CCDW in Kentucky.
I was pulled over, the LEO came to the door and I notified that I had a CCDW and was not carrying. He said it sounded like I was a guy who follows the rules and let me off with a warning.
I guess that makes sense but in Colorado they run your license before they ever turn on the lights. So, in theory (if Colorado linked CHP to license) they'd know you had a permit before they ever got to the car.
I assumed KY was the same as far as running the license before starting the interaction.

What rules? There's no law that requires you to inform in KY.
I don't understand why so many people get defensive about this. Having a permit to carry is not some deep dark secret to be ashamed of. If your carrying legal and have nothing to hide, why are you going to need a defense in court? Common courtesy is nothing to fear.
