What if I am not driving the car and I am just the passenger do I have to show my ID to the police?

My friend got pulled over for speeding I was in the passenger seat had my seatbelt on everything and they asked me for my name and ID did I have to give it to them

Traffic Lawyer Richard Simon’s Answer

No unless the officer has probable cause or reasonable suspicion. Since you do not know if the officer has either and for what(also either can be made up) it is best to show.
