  2. Best advice I ever had regarding "police questioning" (unless you are the one that called them) was to say absolutely nothing other than your name ( Kinda like the Code of Conduct (name, rank, serial number). Don't volunteer anything - it will only work to your detriment.
    But Hell EB, you're the legal eagle !!!

    1. It's a little more complicated than that. Wiki "stop and identify" state laws vary. Some require you to give an address, birthdate, source and destination of your trip... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_and_identify_statutes

      But yes, I agree with you.

      This (long) video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wXkI4t7nuc is worth watching if you have the time and want some expert advice.
