I have the same habit picked up from dealing with the same breed of arseholes I mean police in Australia.
Y U get catched?

I do tend to answer back rather than do the sheepish "Yes, Sir" thing.
I contemplated the former when I got stopped by a police officer who asked what would happen in case I had to perform an emergency stop on my fixed gear bike with only a front brake. Probably a rhetorical question and didn't want to be cheeky so didn't try to argue with him. Didn't get a ticket either, probably correlated.

Its hard to be civil when they're rude and up in your face for little reason

Whatever you do, do it with a smile. I prefer the maniacal grin variety. The 'I'm not listening to you but I really fancy you' smile with batted eyelids is pretty good too.

I need to work out how to react to being stopped by the police.
Clearly my reactions are OK in terms of outcome, but I do tend to answer back rather than do the sheepish "Yes, Sir" thing.
