Seriously if you get pulled over and the cop starts out with an unnecessary question the best thing is just don’t answer. You are not required to answer. Just answer with another question such as why did you pull me over officer?
Or if they say do you know why I pulled you over. You say I think I’ll have to let you tell me.
Just fyi...the cop should approach the car and state something like “the reason you were pulled over is because you failed to use your turn signal when changing lanes”.
His next question would be to ask where you’re heading and coming from and to provide ID and insurance. Failure to do any of the above may cause you to be told to exit the car. You are legally detained for the traffic violation so the cop has the legal right to ask you questions cause you’re on a public roadway. You can refuse the questions, but not the identification, however, the cop can also keep you there until he runs a full history on you, your passengers, and your vehicle to determine if you’re refusing cause you’re just disrespectful or because you’re a criminal. He can also call out a drug dog to walk around the vehicle. Normal people will answer those questions without worry unless they’re a##es or hiding something.
