We recently had two young officers ambushed and killed and two others were shot not too far from here. It all started with a traffic stop. The main thing I communicate when I am stopped is that I am not a threat. I only move when and how I am told to do so. This is the respect I automatically give regardless of my ideas of fairness. I was stopped and not cited several times when I first got this car... and I really don't appreciate the fishing that happens during the stop when you can feel that your every word and action is under intense scrutiny. I also have zero experience of walking up to a vehicle that I have stopped and having no idea who or what I am dealing with, or if I will make it home after my shift.
