What to Do if You’re Stopped by the Police

Getting pulled over or stopped by police can be intimidating, but what you do in those first few minutes can make a world of difference in your case. Some of the most important steps to take are as follows:

  1. Stay Calm and Polite: Pull over safely, keep your hands visible, and always remain respectful. Never lose your temper with law enforcement.
  2. Know Your Rights: Importantly, you do not have to answer questions about where you’ve been, what you’ve had to drink, or where you’re going. Politely say, “I wish to remain silent and would like to speak to my attorney.”
  3. Provide Only Required Information: You must produce your driver’s license, registration, and proof of insurance when asked. Beyond that, you don’t have to volunteer anything else.
  4. Do Not Consent to Searches: Unless police have a warrant or clear probable cause, you do not have to let them search your vehicle. Politely decline consent.
  5. Be Careful With Field Sobriety Tests: These tests are often subjective and can be used against you. In New York and New Jersey, refusing a breath test has consequences, but you still have rights.
  6. Call a Criminal Defense Attorney Immediately: Contact an experienced criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible. Early representation can drastically change the outcome of your case.
