Generally speaking, staying on the right side of the law and not being a smart ass when arrest/questioned by cops seems to significantly lessen your chance of setting off or dealing with loose cannon police.
Also known as "shut up and do what your told"
uniquely American of you to be so subservient

I could see a teenager being nervous with a possible first encounter with police.
This kid was coached to that, probably from the same website from which the story is linked. It's a dangerous game to play.

the time to argue your point is in court before a judge. arguing with a police officer is the wrong way to go and only brings trouble for everyone involved.

If a person is too afraid to interact with a police officer then the person should consider not driving a motor vehicle.

Fear of police is justified. Just look at this video

I would wager it was from his old man who was also a police officer. My father's side of the family is all in law enforcement and gave us plenty of advice on what to do and not to do in police encounters.

My dad was a cop. Told me to just say "Yes, Sir. No, Sir." And then shut the f*ck up in his words. Told me even I am right and think the stop / arrest or whatever is BS, just deal with it AFTERWARDS. Arguing with a cop on the side of the road is an argument you cannot and won't win.

There are millions of interactions with police. From a purely statistical standpoint, there will be a few cops who cross the line. Last time I checked, cops are human like we all are so I don't get why it is so surprising or shocking that there are rogue cops.
Such an old, tired stupid argument. There are millions of interactions every day and in 99% of those the citizen acts appropriately and professional and non violent too.
So why are the cops always the ones so scared and escalating situations? We see alot more cops killing and beating and being violent to citizens then we see citizens beating and killing cops.

So you would just let them rip you out of your car and arrest you without ever even saying why and knowing you had done nothing wrong?
Yep sounds like you are trained just how they want us trained . Just shutup and do what I say.

If you get out of the car, and obey what they say, there will be no "ripping out of the car".
I'd cooperate and then, if need be, collect my 6 million.

What is the percentage of this end result given the millions of stops a day? Yeah, if you are that scare or that much of an argumentative idiot then don't drive.
