If a nice officer pulls me over, I figure the first thing he’s going to ask for is my DL and insurance. By the time he makes it to the vehicle, (and every cop show I’ve watched it’s usually a few minutes of lingering back there) I have my hands in plain sight with my CC permit inhand with my DL. I do not move and I maintain eye contact. I explain I am holding my CC permit and I am armed and I wait for the nice officer to tell me what to do next and I do not move my hands until he does tell me what to do. Which will be, sit there, while he takes my DL/CC, goes back to the safety of his car, checks everything out, and then brings them back with, a have a good day, and here’s a fixit ticket, sorry about that.

Yep - giving a cop attitude or doing some other stupid sh!t is not going to make “the stop” go any quicker.

And given the gravity of this thread, here is a bit of levity - Chris Rock provides an explanation in layman’s terms on how to interact with the police:
