I had this exact same thing happen to me coming into Oklahoma from Texas, while I was living in Dallas for a few years. I'm actually from Oklahoma, so I was going back to my Dad's at the time so I could renew my license plates. One thing I will note is that I won't allow someone to tell me they think I am lying, if I'm not lying. I don't have to rationalize with someone who blames and speak for others. The best possible thing to do is get of of the car and lock it behind you and stuff your keys in your pants the absolute second you are stopped. When they start blaming and speaking for you, tell them they are doing so and you won't allow it. You can then keep your mouth shut until the officer makes a choice between hauling you in and towing the car, or letting you go. Nobody has to make things "right" when there's nothing wrong to begin with. By keeping the amount of stuff you say to one of these jackasses, and what they have access to, greatly limits their ability to fuck with you.
