There is a lot to be said for a little charm and candor. I do this too, and will flip the switch in a second if it looks like it will go bad. One other way to improve ones police interactions is to have one go really bad, then win in court. Happened to me, and I lack time to tell the tale fully. Basically, I came home to my family all angry. I sent everyone to their rooms, wife included lol, and stepped onto my porch to have a smoke and think it through. Sidebar: I really miss that, and am a non smoker today. Three officers walked up and made demands to enter my home, which I denied and they beat my ass and took me to jail. And it was a non trivial beating. What they expect is for people to plead down, and I took it to trial and was found not guilty. Ever since, I have great interactions...
