Well, there is a right way to interact with the police, and many wrong ways.
E.g. pull over (waaaay over. Much farther than you think is plausible), hands visible at all times, very slow movements, eye contact, dome lights on, shoulder muscles relaxed, etc. Most people do ~0 of these things unless they have been coached.
Failing to do these things, esp. while being young/male/profiled socioeconomic group, can drastically change one's experience with the law.
