Apartment Break-In and Newbie LEO with itchy trigger finger.

Most states talk about if the license holder has contact with LEO. If the cop pulled over the driver for something he/she did, then the "contact" would be between the officer and the driver, not between the officer and myself.

Hope that made sense.

sure it makes sense. that's pretty much what I do. just wanted to make sure it was right. I usually don't say a word to the officer as a passenger unless he talks to me first.
