Me too, except that 1 time in the 90's. 2 tickets and the truck impounded for expired plates. Was my brother's truck, I asked the chief if he borrowed someone's truck does he look at the plates?
No?, so he threw that one out
If you get stopped and it's going boringly routine and you want to spice things up, just look left and right and say, "Uh...you aren't going to have to look in the trunk, are you?"
That will produce a response nearly as quickly as playfully snatching the gun from the officer's holster.
(If you are considering either of the above actions, please seek professional help.)

“Evening officer. Did you pull me over to try to sell me tickets to the state police bawl?”
“Sir, state police don’t have bawls”
...
“Have a good day sir”

It's good to know the State Police aren't crybabys.

It's came up a couple of times for me. Once in IL, long story but to make it short I was in a uhaul and two cars were following me, one of which had my MiL. He asked her and my wife if there were any drugs or guns in the truck. She said well he carries one on his hip... That was a fun stop.
Other time it came up at the end of the stop. Officer takes my license/registration asks me a few questions and goes back to his car. Few minutes later comes back and asks if I have any guns in the car. I say yes, he asks where it is, I tell him on my right hip same as yours. He says he figured I had one because I kept my hands on the steering wheel. I respond that I'm sure that the fact that I have a LTCH popped up when you ran my license didn't hurt either. He then says your supposed to tell us when we stop you. Me, Indiana isn't a duty to inform state. Him, well you should tell us. Me, why? Him, here's your license and registration have a nice night.
I don't get pulled over very often, but occasionally and those were the only times it's came up.

Ha! I'll try not to hold that against you.
Still? I figured when us31 was reconfigured the town might have to lay off some of it's coppers given the lost revenue (some of which I view as ill gotten).
The only time being armed ever came up during a stop was in the middle of nowhere on a state highway. Got lit up by ISP for the sticker on my tag being out of date. I had just received my new registration and had it (and the new sticker) in my glove box.
Well, he told me to get out of the car which caused me to pause for a moment to inform him that I was legally armed. He asked where, I told him, he said not to touch it and come with him. He had me put the sticker on and warned me that the locals in the town down the road would immediately ticket me regardless of the fact that my registration was up to date.
Solid guy.

These guys didn't handle it too well either...

Thanks for sharing the story!
Sounds like you got a first class private lesson on the the effects of an adrenaline dump! An unfamiliar and unexpected situation, amplified by the time, your mood, and contact with a person with "Command Presence". I think your reaction is more common than you think.
It's hard to fully induce in training. I've actually told students "imagine that feeling the first time you got pulled over - on steroids." Then we talked about how the "nerves" and adrenaline can effect thinking, reaction, and physical ability. Consider the experience a blessing.
Bunch of rookies there...they like to stalk the legion parking lot. LOL
In my younger days I had a bad night left work at 3am. I was pulled over by every law branch on my trip home. The first one I pulled up to stop sign and stopped looked and saw no one coming pulled out. There he was right behind me turned on red lights NO headlights on! Thats why I didn't see him. Fast stop looked at my ID and said be careful it was a Columbus city officer. As I got out of city limits a county officer pulled me over. I was used to it. The car I drove was rough I traded a 6pack of beer for it. Also, the hours I work I got off at bar closing time. He checked my Id and sent me on my way. The 3rd stop of the night was a state boy again just looked at my ID and said be careful. When I crossed the county bright headlights off to the right came on. Here we go again Jackson County officer stopped me. When I got into town a Seymour city officer stopped me. I knew him so I told him what had happened and asked what is going on. He said my car matched the description of one they were looking for. 5 stops in 1 night no tickets and was 30 minutes late getting home.
After 5 stops I would have just pulled over when seeing any patrol car.
I pulled over after seeing (rear view mirror), a county car maneuver in traffic to come my way.
I turned up the wrong way on an off lane (no cars coming, light at intersection was going from yellow to red).
Knowing I was the target and pulling over got me a verbal warning about being in a hurry.
My single barrel, straight six pulling a trailered john boat wouldn't have been enough to speed away before being caught.
I would probably be a bit shaky also as I haven't been pulled over since "74".
“After” getting cut loose w/o getting a ticket, it is a nice gesture to say “thank you for your service”I always hand out my pink card along with my drivers license. Seems to solve most issues and icing on the cake is that it seems to turn minor speeding tickets into warnings.
Evening officer, sorry if I seem really nervous from getting pulled over…my wife ran off with a police officer last week and I was afraid it was you trying to give her back.
