My 2 cents:
If you get pulled by the cops for whatever reason just smile politely, look like your listening, answer their questions and say your sorry if you commited an offence. In my experience this can be the difference between a telling off and a penalty notice. IMO antagonising police and being obstructive just becuase they stopped you for commiting an offence is stupid and childish... it's not cool and it's not clever.
If you are unfortunate enough to meet an officer who is full of sh!t, just suck it up, play along and bitch about it later on the internet.
