i did not carry a gun when i had a accident in which i was given a ride home in the back of police car (my car frame was bent to much for me to drive it safely).
if i was open carrying a gun at the time and the police officer offered me a ride home after my car was damaged and had no one else to drive me the 11 miles there, what should be the procedure before getting in the police car
Every PD is different, but I personally don't know any dept's that allow someone, other than another officer, to ride in the back of a police car armed. I'd simply place the weapon in the front seat of my car while you were in the back and return it to ya when we're done.
