This is a little long but it's great advice.

9. Yes, exactly.

That's why I don't like seeing posts like this, advising people how to deal with the police. It's fine for some to do that, but for others, it's a quick way to get dragged out of your car, cuffed, and maybe taking a beating.

It has happened so often that it should be common knowledge. Be safe. Don't be a smart-ass, unless you are among the group that can get away with smart-assery. If not, you can still keep your mouth shut, but be polite to LEOs. You might get arrested, but you won't get injured. Then, you can use your right to an attorney at the police station.

There's no way you can win by pissing off the cops. That really never works, except for some people. Not ever for many others, though.
