When stopped by law enforcement in Ohio, a CCW permit holder must:

  1. Immediately inform the officer that they are carrying a weapon

  2. Only disclose if asked by the officer

  3. Keep their hands visible and wait for the officer to notice

  4. None of the above

The correct answer is: Immediately inform the officer that they are carrying a weapon

When stopped by law enforcement in Ohio, a CCW permit holder is required by law to immediately inform the officer that they are carrying a weapon. This is because Ohio has a duty to inform law, which means that individuals with a CCW permit must inform an officer if they are carrying a weapon, whether they are asked or not. Option B is incorrect because they are required to inform regardless of being asked. Option C is incorrect because keeping hands visible and waiting for the officer to notice is not the same as immediately informing them. Option D is incorrect because as mentioned before, Ohio has a duty to inform law and therefore not informing the officer is not an option.
