A question about traffic stops and CCW
GreyGeek:
I was riding in the back seat of my daughter's car, going with her, my wife and my grandson to the MIT that he was playing in Saturday. I wasn't carrying because the event is on a campus. But, a question arose in my mid: "If she were stopped would I have to tell the officer I was a CHP holder, even if I wasn't carrying, and/or the officer never 'contacted' (69-2440) or spoke to me?"
IOW, what does "contact" mean?

If the officer does not "officially" contact you (which he probably will), you do not have to mention to him. My presumption of "official" contact is his/her acknowledgement of you and others in the vehicle. Personally, I would disclose it to him out of courtesy. Again, MY personal thoughts. With regards to going to the event on campus, you are okay to carry concealed as long as the gun is locked up accordingly when you exit the vehicle. No reason to become a potential victim going to and fro.....

Nebraska Law does not require you to say anything if you are not carrying.

As I understand it, if you are the passenger you do not unless he ask for your ID.

Reading the law, I see nothing about being asked for an ID. That's why I asked here, where the experienced, and some LEO's, visit.
