A post i saw on here got a few wheels spinning in my mind about something i had never really thought about; If you need to get involved in any type of legal proceeding while dressed, what to do?
Even getting stopped for a simple traffic violation could turn very ugly when the woman in the car hands the cop a driver's license that says "Bob Smith" on it, depending on what kind of person the cop is (not a knock on police, but like any other group of people, some of them can be real jerks).
What to do if you are involved in a car accident? Or if you are involved in, or a witness to, the commision of a crime where you need to file a statement, or even testify in court? Unfortunately, we do live in a world of legal technicalities, judgemental bosses, and ignorant agressive bystanders.
A priority for me is to move to a state that allows people to dictate their own sex on their drivers license, and legally change my name. Unless i am involved in something that digs deeply into my past (and i dont plan to appear in front of a jury anytime, ever, if i can at all help it!) this should prove adequate. But, before that point, or for those people who dress casually, do you have a plan in case this sort of thing occurs?
Somewhat concerned, Terri.
