Under reasonable suspicion, what information may a person have to provide?

• A. Name, Date of Birth, and Address
• B. Social Security Number
• C. Driver's License
• D. Nothing

Answer: (A)

When someone is stopped on reasonable suspicion, the goal of any request for information is to identify who you are and determine if there’s any basis for further investigation. The most appropriate and commonly allowed information to provide is basic identifying details: your name, date of birth, and address. This set of data helps the officer confirm identity, check for prior contacts or warrants, and decide what steps to take next.

Why this fits best: it covers essential identification without overstepping into highly sensitive data. A driver’s license is a form of ID tied to driving privileges and may be required if you’re operating a vehicle, but it isn’t automatically demanded in every non-driving encounter. A Social Security number is not something that is typically required or appropriate to disclose during a routine stop and poses unnecessary privacy risks. So the option listing name, date of birth, and address aligns with the common, safer expectation for identifying information during a stop.
