> Unless you personally witnessed a serious crime like assault, rape or murder, shut the fuck up.

And even then, only share your observations of the crime in question. If the conversation turns towards you in any way, shut the fuck up.

And even then, get a lawyer first consult them on everything you say before you say it.

And never forget the only things you should ever say during a traffic stop:

Why have you pulled me over?

I don't know. Here are my license and registration.

I'm not required to discuss my day.

When was your radar last calibrated? (avoid this one unless you really want to piss them off)

Am I free to go?

Am I under arrest?

I would like to speak to a lawyer.

If it's not on this list, have your lawyer present and consult them directly before saying it.
