I don't have any problems with cops. I've been stopped and had shit in my car or whatever, but they don't ask to search. I just act like I would during any other normal stop and remain very respectful. Usually ends up with a warning and a quick "Please drive safely".

My attitude is this: Cops have better things to do with their time then to knit pick. You don't give them a hard time and usually they don't give you one. And I lived in New Jersey...racial profiling capitol of the U.S. The 2 run-ins that I had with State Police...nice as pie...warnings both times.
