The question is unanswerable as worded. You would have to be more specific with the circumstances - WHAT were the circumstances - WHAT was your reason - Are you the perpetrator of the offense - Was the circumstance a felony or a misdemeanor, or was it simply a 'stop' on the street - etc - etc??????

Is there a penalty for giving a fake name when getting pulled over by a police officer because you only have a permit?
Yes, that penalty is arrest and more serious charges for furnishing false identification to a law enforcement officer.
How long after giving a blood sample for drink driving must you be charged with an offence?
The fact that you gave blood isn't actually relevant. What you want to know is the statute of limitations, which is the statute that sets the time limit for how long after the crime the state is allowed to charge you with an offense. The time limit would begin running from the time you supposedly committed the crime, which is actually better than from the time when they took the blood sample. Unfortunately for you, its not going to make much difference. The statute of limitations on most crimes is YEARS. It will vary from place to place, since each state has its own statute of limitations. For example, in Wisconsin (I picked the example state at random), the statute of limitations is 3 years for misdemeanors and 6 years for most felonies. So you won't be truly off the hook for a long, long time.

Can you lie to a sheriff about your identity?

How computers are used in law and law enforcement?
Computers are used in law and law enforcement for various purposes, including case management, research, data analysis, and communication. In law enforcement, computers are important for maintaining databases, conducting investigations, and identifying suspects through facial recognition technology. Additionally, computers aid in tracking and monitoring online activities for potential illegal behavior.
How long does an officer have to pull you over after a traffic violation?
I do not believe that there is a time limit. I can remember one little old lady (in the US) that just would not pull over, so a low-speed 45-minute chase ensued. 'Tire strips' were successfully deployed, giving her four flat tires.
What is the statute of limitations on speeding tickets in West Virginia?
Any Statute of Limitations only applies to crimes you HAVEN"T been caught for. The intent of the principle is that some erasure of past bad behavior is best forgiven and forgotten, since witnesses have died and memories have faded. Furthermore the offender has grown up a bit. Crimes you HAVE been caught for are FOREVER, although the court may take pity on you if you turn yourself in, and plead youthful intemperance, or somesuch. But--Heh! Courts lose documents too. Perhaps you should have a "friend" check on it. Not exactly an accurate answer. One a speeding "ticket" is issued the sppeding driver has a number of days (depending upon the county where the ticket was issued) to respond to the ticket byeither pleading guilty, no contest or not guilty. If the driver pleads "not guilty" the issuing officer must then fill out a criminal complaint seeting forth the facts giving rise to the issuance of the speeding ticket, the driver will be issued a summons and the matter resolved before a Magistrate. The issuance of the criminal complaint and summons is governed by the misdemeanor statute of limitations - which is one year from the date of the offense. If the person fails to respond to the ticket - that is just ignores it, the officer still must obtain the complaint and summons within one year of the offense. However, don't just ignore those speeding tickets, because if you fail to respond to the ticket by entering a plea of guilty, no contest or not guilty, the West Virginia DMV will administratively suspend your West Virginia driving privleges for your failure to respond.
