Driver Manual Updates on What to do when stopped by Law Enforcement

The recently updated class D driver’s manual highlights what to do if stopped by law enforcement found on page 40 of the manual.

The section was expanded to include:

·         How to act when stopped by law enforcement.

·         The type of information you may be asked to provide.

·         What to do if you have a firearm in the vehicle.

·         What to do if you are issued a citation that you disagree with.

·         The consequences of fleeing police in a motor vehicle.

Being stopped by a law enforcement officer can be a stressful experience, but knowing what to do during the traffic stop will help to ensure a safe interaction for all involved.
