I don't know one LEO that really cares what your name and address are. I ask for ID of every person I make contact with in an enforcement situation. Main reason is to confirm identify (picture matches name given.) Another reason is Warrant checks. I couldn't look myself in the mirror if I found out that a person I let go without Identifying was a wanted murderer, pedophile, or even missing elderly.
I completely respect those who wish to exercise the right to refuse ID. Just don't take it so personal against LEO when we ask. I doubt you truly understand our intentions. We don't want to harass you, we just don't want to make a mistake that could have serious consequences.

I’ve lived almost 60 years and never been asked to produce ID by a police officer outside of a few traffic stops.
Of course, I’m not a criminal, so I probably wouldn’t have a problem if asked for my ID during the course of an investigation.
I choose to believe that the police are one of the few institutions that keep our society from breaking down.
Yeah, I’ll side with them over the rampant lawlessness that they have to combat.

I really don't think it's giving up my rights to show ID to a cop. They have enough crap going on I'll cooperate anyway I can to get them back on track to protecting my city.
I've never been asked for ID unless I was being pulled over or involved in something illegal when I was younger. If a cop just walks up and asks for ID out of the blue while I'm standing at a gas pump or somthing I would ask why though in a nice way. If the answer makes sense heck yeah I'd give it to him/her. I would def be curious why they want it. Nothing wrong with asking questions in my book just use your noggin.Last edited by SCREAMINREELS; 05-15-2018, 11:27 PM.

My son is a LEO and deals with POS all day and night sometimes. He also knows when he pulls over someone, and the words they use when interacting will determine how aggressive he is with his stop. He has stopped folks to compliment their driving and patience. To give attaboys. Driving is a privilege, so you are bound by their rules. Standing on a corner and being asked for ID and where your going or coming from sounds a lot like Nazi Germany if you are not being detained and not suspected of a crime.
It the police world it is OK for them to lie to you to get info. LEO never mention that.

The new “texting and driving” law is also a citation only law.
If you issue a citation for speeding, the offender refuses to sign the ticket, and you do not arrest/magistrate them, it is because you are choosing not to do so.
Refusal to sign a speeding ticket gives the officer authority for a warrantless arrest.
Discretion applies, but refusal to sign the ticket is a pretty strong indicator that the court won’t be graced with their voluntary presence.

Most police officers know when they can and can't ID somebody. Out of curiosity though, have any of you just been minding your own business, doing nothing wrong, or not been on some sort of scene where law enforcement had been called and had an LEO come up and want to see your ID? Because from a LE standpoint I know in 16 years I've never ID'd anybody that wasn't a witness, suspect, violator or somebody directly related to a call I was on...
