I'll add my story here,

I was pulled over last week cause my brake light was out. I work at a car dealership, and was in a dealership owned car.

I handed over my drivers license, auto salesmans license, and ccw permit.

He asked if i was armed, i told him it was in a lockbox under my seat. He thanked me for informing him, and ran my licenses

(that took like 10 minutes, but he told me because there's somebody with same birthday and similar last name, and very similar physical characteristics, who's wanted for several felonies in virginia. Explains why it always takes 3-4 hours for my background checks to clear when i buy a gun:barf

He gave me my licenses, told me to have a nice night and went on his way.

He did also tell me that their systems do inform them if the tag or license is registered to somebody with a carry permit.
