The only time I have argued with an officer in a traffic stop was a couple of decades ago when I was behind a guy who was pulling away from me after the light turned green. An officer was parked across from a school and stopped the guy. As I went to pull around them, she motioned for me to pull over as well. I was puzzled, but complied. When she finished with the other guy and approached, asking for the usual papers, she claimed I had been speeding in the school zone. I pointed out I had been directly behind the other driver at the lights, but he was pulling away from me, so I could not have been doing the same speed. She checked my data in her car, returned my papers with a short speech about the need to respect school zone speed limits, which I certainly endorse.
Other than that, it is always, "Yes Sir, No Mam. Thank you Officer. "
