Yesterday as I was going home the traffic was backed up with a pile of blue lights flashing up ahead. I figured it was an accident. The I saw around the cars in front that it looked like most were being redirected around the accident onto a side street. As I got closer I noticed a sign that said Sheriff's Check Point.:shock: I placed my gun in my console which is legal in SC and decided to go ahead and get out my license and registration. When I finally got up to the check point I could see that all those cars that they had redirected were parked on the side street and looked like being wrttien a ticket.
I got up to the LEO and he asked for my license and registration. I handed it to him, he walked around behind, checked the license plate, handed my license back and registration back to me and said "Have a safe trip, Sir". The odd thing was this was being directed by the Sheriff's Department, I didn't see any Highway Patrolmen or City Police. I have a feeling that they were looking for more than drunk drivers or expired license.
Since I had my gun in my console and not on me I didn't show him my CWP like I am supposed to do. I also did not ask him if I was being detained. What else did I do wrong?
