10 things to remember when dealing with the police:
1. Be polite and respectful. Police officers need to feel that they are in a nonthreatening environment.
2. Stay calm and remain in control. You may be scared and even think your rights are being violated. But just relax. Watch your words, body language and emotions.
3. Do not, under any circumstances, get into an argument with the police. If the officer is out of line, you can file a complaint later.
4. Keep your hands in plain sight and make sure the police can see your hands at all times. Make no aggressive motions.
5. Avoid physical contact with police. Don’t even brush against an officer.
6. Don’t run from a police officer even if you feel afraid.
7. Don’t resist arrest even when you know you are innocent.
8. Always remember that anything you say or do can be used against you in a court of law.
9. Make no statements about the incident until you are with your parents, guardian or lawyer.
10. Remember, your goal is to get home safely. If your rights are being violated, you will have the right to file a complaint or take corrective actions later.
