Not so good advice if you're cold sober and want to go home.

I used to think this also, but it just isn't true. I want to say that I have been pulled over a few times and have always had the most professional conduct from LEOs and never had a problem. Most if not all police are honest sensible people. But there are horror stories out there, and understanding how to interface with police in a formal situation can be critical. I don't want to get too wordy here, but we are granted rights under the constitution that we all should know and exercise without reservation. There are many videos online on how to deal respectfully with police. I find this one to have great points and have had my kids watch it.
