Starb3an , to Texas in [KLTV ABC7] New Texas law requiring ID at traffic stops to go into effect Friday

Since the entire “news story” is one sentence with the other 95% of the page being ads, I guess you’ll know after you get arrested.

For the driver, that makes sense I guess. You’re supposed to have your driver’s license if you’re driving. Seems like they should be able to look that up, but whatever. Does this apply to passengers too though?

Edit: wait a minute… how did I get to the Texas sub.

I thought that it was already a legal requirement to provide identification to law enforcement, upon request.

Have I have been wrong for most of my life, or is this a regional thing?

Varies from state to state. Possibly municipality to municipality. In my area I always assumed this was already the case

Vent ,

It’s a criminal offense now, so if the officer is having a bad day you get to spend the night in jail. Max fine of $500

manapropos ,

I thought I was crazy. I can’t think of a scenario anywhere in the US where you get pulled over without your license and it turns out OK

They couldn’t have smashed a less expensive or less important window?

The baby “had become stuck inside”?

Like… it broke in and couldn’t make its getaway after boosting the stereo?

Vorticity ,

It sounds like the the car got locked with the keys inside somehow. Maybe the baby managed to hit the lock button.

totallynotarobot ,

While I appreciate your sensible and informative reply, my version is funnier.

Vorticity ,

Ah, I must be too tired to recognize jokes…
