I don’t know…for a routine traffic stop where you can guess why you were pulled over, I just can’t see pulling this routine–er, I mean invoking my Fourth and Fifth Amendment rights. I don’t like being asked “where you coming from…where you going?” questions, but they just want to see if your breath smells of booze. I don’t want to risk pissing the cop off, because you just don’t know anymore where that will lead.
Never before has shutting the fuck up seemed so…I dunno…hardcore!
This leads me to wonder: is there a legal requirement that the window be unrolled during a routine traffic stop? I would be surprised if there were, generally speaking (obviously laws vary from here to there). What about opening the door if requested during such a stop?
The more you talk, the less your lawyer can do for you later.
Lay back and groove…
