1 turn on interior light:

signal that you are pulling over..(NOT WITH YOUR HANDS)..Keep hands on steering wheel at all times!

Pull completely off the road..
Cop's are afraid of getting hit by other cars..
leave room for them to stand and talk to you..

DO NOT REACH FOR GLOVE BOX OR IN YOUR POCKETS!
Keep your hands on steering wheel!
You dont want officer to think you're going for a weapon..

Turn car off..
Don't want officer to fear you'll flee

Don't say anything at all..
Let the officer do all the talking..
Be polite..yes sir, no sir..
When he asks for license & reg..
Before you reach for it; tell officer where it is & what you're doing..

IE; it's in the glovebox, is it ok for me to open & get it..

This way he won't feel threatened & his guard will be down & no fear..

NO EXCUSES..they hear them all day..they heard them all!!


Sit tight..

Wait...

chances are, you'll get a warning..

You would be getting searched for being nervous and suspicious with that method space.

Just relax, and be honest with the guy. Don't try to bullshit him, because he knows your speed, and he's got all the proof he needs to get a conviction. So relax, and be honest & friendly. Period. If you get the ticket anyway, be nice about it, tell him "have a good day", and move on.
