Is it required to notify a police officer that you're carrying a firearm during a traffic stop in Connecticut?

  1. Yes, immediately

  2. No

  3. Only if asked by the officer

  4. Only if carrying concealed

The correct answer is: Only if asked by the officer

Context In Connecticut, the law does not explicitly require individuals who possess a valid permit to carry a firearm to inform a police officer about the presence of firearm during a traffic stop. However, not disclosing this information to the officer when asked could lead to penalties. Therefore, it is important to always follow the instructions of the officer and disclose this information if asked. Option A, Yes immediately, is incorrect because it is not always required to inform the police officer about the presence of a firearm in Connecticut. Option B, No, is incorrect because failing to inform the officer when asked could result in penalties. Option D, Only if carrying concealed, is incorrect because the law applies to individuals who possess a valid permit to carry a firearm, regardless of whether it is concealed or not.
