In Washington State, does the law require you to inform a police officer that you're carrying a concealed weapon during a traffic stop?

  1. Yes, immediately

  2. No, not unless asked

  3. Yes, but only if asked

  4. No, under no circumstances

The correct answer is: Yes, but only if asked

For this question, the correct answer is C Yes, but only if asked. While it is not required for you to immediately inform a police officer that you are carrying a concealed weapon during a traffic stop in Washington State, it is important to know that you must inform the officer if they specifically ask. Option A is incorrect because it does not specify that the officer must ask. Option B is incorrect because it states that you are not required to inform the officer at all, which is not entirely accurate. Option D is incorrect because even though you are not required to disclose the information unless asked, there are still circumstances where the officer may ask and you must inform them. Therefore, the best answer is C.
