let me ask u guys something... if u think by "not showing a cop your id" and spouting of a bunch of bs law crap u learned on the internet will help anything, u may want to reconsider. let me tell u why..
you get pulled over
officer: sir can i see your ID
you: i don't need to show you my ID, i wasn't doing anything
officer (thinking to himself, while i cannot legally arrest or ticket this man i now have suspicious behavior)
Now he can say ANYTHING... ANYTHING that he saw u do that could have gotten u pulled over. not signalling far enough in advance, u touched a boundry line, excessive acceleration (yea, thats a real ticket), noise violation, tint looked too dark, etc..., etc.... And chances are, you probably brake about 50 traffic laws a day that you don't know about.
Now, because you are "so smart with your newfound online knowlege" he now has reasonable cause to ask you for a vehicle search, sobriety test, or anything else that are legally within his rights to do after pulling u over... all things u could have avoided by just providing your damn ID.
theres a reason there are people (lawyers) that are paid to know every loophole of the law
