So without a CHL any gun in my friend's car would have to belong to my friend.

With a CHL though, I can carry in his vehicle as a passenger without a problem. Correct?

If I am a passenger though and now lets say I have a CHL (which I will soon) and he gets stopped for speeding... what is proper etiquette for dealing with the officer? Should I sit down and shut up? Or should I give my ID's to my friend to present to the cop or what? I am pretty sure that most cops don't like surprises...

Hence what is appropriate?

I am brand new to this board and I am waiting on my CHL to arrive in the mail.

I have a couple of questions...

The first one is a question regarding House Bill 1815.

That bill allows a person to 'travel' in their vehicle with a handgun WITHOUT a CHL. However the place that I am looking at states clearly that a stipulation of that to be "The person must own or control the motor vehicle."

SO, if a buddy of mine asks me to go to San Antonio for the weekend and we ride together...and for whatever reason if we were stopped by a cop and lets say were 100% open about it... could I get in trouble for having a weapon in my friend's vehicle?

A follow up question would be, WITH a CHL what are, if any rules regarding riding as a passenger in another person's vehicle with a weapon?
