Default What if you don't have a radio license to prove to the cops you'reoperating completely legally???

What do you do when you're travelling in a caravan and operating
completely legally under your immediate relative's GMRS CB license and
a cop pulls you over and demands to see YOUR radio license and then
when you can't show or give it to him , he fines and tivkets you and
arrests you and confiscates all your legal radio equipment because

"you're operating radio illegally since you don't have a radio license
and if you do have one, you're operating illegally since you're not
carrying it with you".

The courts in Officer Bubba's county, Officer Billy Bob's county, and
Officer Deputy Dawg's county will NOT rule in your favor.

I didn't mention Barney Fife because I think even Barney Fife would
hve more smarts than that.

I've seen several people here and on the net say the officer has the
right to demand it and the right and even DUTY to arrest you if you're
not carrying your radio license with you even if you are licensed.

And that it's your own fault if you don't have the license with you to
prove it.

Again, the FCC does NOT issue a physical paper copy to all the
immediate relatives of a GMRS licensee.

Although the relatives are covered under the GMRS licensee.

But you can't call your relative for help to being his license becaue
he's now out of range since the cop stopped you and cell phones don't
work because there aren't ant cell phone towers in the very rural tri
county area of Officers Bubba, Billy Bob, and Deputy Dawg.
