all I can add is that a roadside encounter with a cop is not the time or is it the place to discuss your rights.
I disagree. You have the right to know why you were stopped, if you are being detained and/or why you are being detained. You have the right to refuse a vehicle search if so inclined but do it with some respect and as someone else stated be sure you are in front of the dashcam. As for me, I will be respectful but firm in protecting my rights. Tens of thousands of Americans serving in the military fought and died defending this country and our right to be free and I'm not going to piss on their graves. If the cop doesn't respect my rights then he can arrest me and I will file charges for unlawful arrest. My rights are non negotiable.

if they want to run a check to see if it is stolen then state you would like to keep your property on your person but you will gladly read the numbers for him/her.
I don't inform as I'm not required by law. If he asks I tell him where it is and ask him how he wants to proceed.
you can try to exercise thee rights you're supposed to have but if the cop is intent on violating your rights the roadside traffic stop is not the place to argue with an inept cop about what he can and cannot do.Your'e right, don't discuss your rights--like Firefighterchen says you exercise them.
