In Ohio, it is required to inform a police officer you are carrying a concealed weapon when?

  1. Upon request only

  2. Immediately upon the officer's approach

  3. Only if the officer asks

  4. At no time is it required

The correct answer is: Immediately upon the officer's approach

In Ohio, if you are carrying a concealed weapon, it is required to inform a police officer immediately when they approach you. This means that if you are pulled over or approached by an officer, you should let them know right away that you have a concealed weapon. Option A is incorrect because the officer may not always ask for this information. Option C is also incorrect because you shouldn't wait for the officer to ask, as that may delay the exchange of information and potentially escalate the situation. Option D is incorrect because there is a specific time when you are required to inform a police officer. The correct choice, B, emphasizes the importance of notifying the officer as soon as they approach to ensure the safety of both parties involved.
