A friend of mine got in trouble once so I have had the inestimable pleasure of being interviewed by police. Here's the thing - there's all sorts of technicalities they may or may not use. If you totally stonewall them? If they have any leverage, they will use that leverage. You want them to lose interest in you. A traffic stop you just comply politely, decline to be searched and say: there is no sense having a right to privacy if it is not exercised, Officer X. Here's what I did: 0) Officer : Keefe, I hear X happened, what about Y? 1) Keefe : oh, I dunno...mumble... I'm so embarrassed... this is so embarrassing <looks at feet> 3) Goto 0 After a while, he lost interest. I saw the police report afterwards where I was noted as "uncooperative". They don't know that you're not a social reject or something, just refuse to interact.
