Driving nude
Return to DiscussionsThere was a CHP (California Highway Patrol) booth at a car show and I asked them about driving nude. The 4 officers got over the shock of the questions and entered into the discussion. Consensus was ok as long as the driver had a license & registration handy. They thought going slow by a school or school bus might elicit complaints. But generally, just driving nude not lewd wouldn't be a problem.

A quick google of CHP gave me Combined heat and Power systems and Community Health Partnerships. Could somebody explain to people from across the puddle what CHP is in this context.

One thing law enforcement would like about a nude driver is knowing they arent armed.

Someone could be nude and still be armed in a vehicle. I have a place on my dashboard that is perfect for a clip on holster within easy reach, just past the steering wheel. I can easily access my pistol faster and easier than I could if I were wearing it strapped to my body somewhere. That's not to say I would pull it on a LEO during a traffic stop though. But in the event of an attempted car jacking or other criminal act, it would be a whole other matter.

What does CHP stand for?
As others have stated, here in the U.S.A. we know it as the California Highway Patrol

I always drive armed, sometimes on my person and always in the vehicle. During interaction with Law Enforcement Officers (LEO) in more than one state none seemed the least bit concerned about that. After showing them my license to carry they all asked what I had and where. After that all has some variation on the "keep your hands away from it and we will be fine". The response I liked best was a female Nebraska Highway Patrol officer who simply said, "Don't show me yours and I won't show you mine" No, I was not nude at the time as it was November and right around freezing outside.

Here in the UK it is illegal to carry arms and it is not illegal to be naked in public. The police are told to take no action when seeing a naked driver - as long as he's wearing a seat belt.

I have been driving naked for several years across many US states and a few other countries. I feel pretty confident about it but am careful about having my middle covered if a bus passes. No longer concerned about big rigs. So far so good, and glad to hear reports that LEO say it's not illegal.

CHP=California Highway Patrol. They were all motor (motorcycle) officers.
