Is it mandatory to inform a police officer that you're carrying a concealed weapon during a traffic stop in Ohio?

Yes, immediately upon the officer's approach
No, unless the officer specifically asks
Only if you're asked to step out of the vehicle
Yes, but only if you're carrying the weapon on your person at the time

The correct answer is: Yes, immediately upon the officer's approach

In Ohio, it is mandatory to inform a police officer that you're carrying a concealed weapon during a traffic stop. It is important to disclose this information as soon as the officer approaches your vehicle, even if they do not specifically ask. This is for the safety of both the officer and yourself. Option B is incorrect because it implies that you only need to inform the officer if they ask, which is not the case in Ohio. Option C is also incorrect because you should inform the officer as soon as they approach, not just when directed to step out of the vehicle. Option D is also incorrect because the question does not specify whether the weapon is on your person or in the vehicle, and in Ohio, it is mandatory to inform the officer in either case.
