Now that you know that, challenging the officer in relation to the stop, while he still has you pulled over, will not do allot of good. If you have a question, don't be afraid to ask, because he may have forgotten to explain something to you. If, however, you still feel that an officer has done something wrong, you need to go to court and let the judge decide what should be done. Most courts will not let you testify to the officer's attitude, so you need to take that up with his or her supervisor. Even officers know how it feels to get pulled over and most understand what it is like to receive a ticket and will, for the most part, try to be as courteous as you allow.
Traffic stops at night are very risky for the officer as well as the violator.
Let's take a look at a few minor things you can do to help the officer as well as yourself. I have a tendency to make mistakes or forget something. If you feel I have done either let me know by emailing me. Also remember these are just guidelines and opinions of one officer, not facts. I have tried to be as accurate as possible.
