Got pulled over by Metro police yesterday evening while leaving downtown via the 45 HOV. Before he got to the window I had it rolled down, wallet with ID on the dash, hands on the wheel at 10 & 2, and declared CHL when he asked for license and proof of insurance.

He just shrugged when I mentioned the CHL, admonished me for speeding coming onto the HOV (which I was), and gave me a warning. Wife was in the car with me, there looked to be a team of 3 out there looking for HOV violators.

6 minutes start to finish, the officer was polite, and I got off very lucky.

Pleased with first (and hopefully only) encounter with CHL.
