notes for passengers:

• law enforcement and passengers should respond with courtesy during traffic stops and other officer/citizen interactions.
• a passenger in a vehicle should receive instructions advising him or her that he or she can be asked questions by an officer while being detained. however, a passenger can ask an officer if he or she is being detained or if he or she is free to leave. a passenger has the right to leave if he or she is not being detained.
• although it is lawful for you to remain silent during a traffic stop, you are required by law to truthfully identify yourself when asked to do so by an officer. a driver or passenger can be arrested for giving false identifying information to an officer.
• although you have the right to remain silent, it may be beneficial to verbally provide identifying and address information to an officer if you cannot present your license.
• an officer may conduct a non consensual search based on an officer’s observation that you have responded in a way to make the officer believe that you have engaged in a criminal act or are about to engage in a criminal act.
• if you are placed under arrest, it is an offense to refuse to identify yourself, to not provide your address, or to refuse to give your date of birth to an officer.
