Stay Calm

Remain calm and composed during a traffic stop. Avoid sudden movements, keep your hands visible, and communicate clearly with the officer.

Do Not Argue

Avoid debating during the encounter to keep yourself safe; instead, prioritize composure and address any legal disagreements later in a courtroom.

Know Your Rights

Understand your fundamental legal protections. You have the right to remain silent and should state clearly if you choose to exercise it.

Prioritize Your Safety

Confirm your safety first. If in danger, contact emergency services.
