  2. The Law Offices of Howard Craig Kornberg When the police officer approaches you, stay in your vehicle and roll down the window. Turn off the engine and place your hands on the steering wheel so the cop can see them. Also, if it is dark, turn on the interior light in your vehicle. Do not reach for your driver’s license, registration, or any other documentation just yet. Wait for the officer to ask you for it. The last thing you would want is for the cop to perceive your actions as a threat, thinking that you are reaching for a weapon.

  3. DO NOT GIVE THE OFFICER A REASON TO SEARCH YOUR VEHICLE Avoid any sudden or suspicious movements, as you would not want to give the cop an excuse to legally search your car. Experiencedcar accident attorney in Los Angeles explains that police officers have probable cause to search vehicles during traffic stops when they have a valid reason to believe that you are armed, dangerous or involved in criminal activity.

  4. DO NOT GET OUT OF YOUR CAR UNLESS THE COP ASKS YOU TO Exiting the vehicle without an officer’s permission sends him or her wrong message: for all he or she knows, you may be going to fight or flee. If the cop has a reason to believe that you are armed, he or she can pat down your outer clothing.

  5. DO NOT GET OUT OF YOUR CAR UNLESS THE COP ASKS YOU TO Be polite and never interrupt the police officer. Let him or her do the talking, and only answer when you are asked a question. Do not say anything that the officer can record and use against you later on.
