If the officer pulls you over in your vehicle he/she will run your plates prior to making contact with you. Your license plate is linked to the registered driver's license. Your drivers license is linked to your CPL. The officer already knows in this situation. True you may not be the registered driver but when your drivers license is run, they know.

As a courtesy to the officer I produce the CPL along with the license and insurance card. Only have had to do this once in the last 20 years.

"Lax" is not a term I would use to describe Washington gun laws. The Washington constitution has some powerful protections for it's citizens in both the firearms; shall issue, and taxes; super majority required, areas.
