Right here in the USA, you need to be pretty careful. There was an article
in the Houston
Chronicle in recent months detailing some 60-70 odd shootings of unarmed
individuals by
the police. Several teenagers have been killed. Police got spooked, they
say.

If a policeman pulls you over here, you are to stay in the car, keep your
hands up and clearly visible. No quick moves.

If you carry a concealed firearm, you hand the policeman the license along
with your drivers
license.

I guess our registration documentation is the window sticker. We do not
have paper registrations
any more, as far as I know.

I would not keep the title in the car, for sure.
