The place to fight stupid tickets is in the courtroom.

I do not believe adhering to your rights is the same as "resisting" He can Process all he wants he has nothing on you as long as you do not admit to a crime or allow him access to your vehicle.
I do not think we are disagreeing here at all. I hold my officials accountable for upholding the law. Actually once you fail to self incriminate, the encounter is pretty much over and they will let you go.
If in doubt simply ask: "am I being detained?" unless they say yes and that you are under arrest, you are legally free to drive off without breaking the law in any way.
I obviously do not fear the law. I don't think any of us should. The burden of proof is on the officer, you are presumed innocent.
Anyhow good talk Chris, and you are right being polite makes most of this stuff a moot point.
