The thing is, regarding the felon clause as i like to call it, how is the officer going to know that unless they run your license for another matter?
If i get pulled over for something like a blown tail light and he notices the radio equipment and i provide my amateur license and a copy of the law he would still have to run my license to find out if i had a record in the first place.
I ran this past a couple LEO's i know personally. Here is their repsonse.
The office wouldn't have just cause to run my license to look for a felony record based on a blown tail light, he could indeed run my license plate to make sure there is no driving violations reported that would concern him right away, stolen vehicle, speeding tickets, etc.
I'm not defending everyone with a felony record, but the thing is, the officer would have to know at the time of seizure that you actually have a felony record. If a LEO walks past my van and hears law enforcement traffic audio and uses that as a reason to run my records i don't see just cause here unless i had a felony record and he knew that ahead of time?
