All in all, safer for everyone if the person stays seated in the car, where the cop can generally keep an eye on him.
The story about the secret insurance policy is total fantasy. So is the notion that the UCC governs traffic tickets or that traffic laws apply only to "commerce".

Then the first words out of our mouths must allay their fears of the unknown -
to wit (i love that phrase
me: Greetings in the name of Jesus and our heavenly father.
I am not a corporation, nor am I an agent for any corporation.
(the second sentence were the first words out of my mouth when I was stopped
and I'm convinced that they struck home because the PO made no attempt to enter
my car, nor his compatriots who later arrived!)
and from there we must only respond with our heavenly father's word.
PO: do you know why i stopped you?
me: I'm just going about my heavenly father's business - i'm not committing commerce.
(i would suggest not mentioning how you are going about His business, it's not about
you, make it about Him)
PO: give me your license and insurance papers.
me: my Heavenly father has not sent me to committ commerce.
Or, repeat your previous words, "I am going about my heavenly father's business."
(dont argue! we see these two words here regularly.
also, assume they say "stay in car" for their safety and ours, so comply.
we lose nothing by complying with that simple "command" unless you're
fortunate enough to stop your car on private property, off and away
from moving traffic)
Remember we are ambassadors for christ, anointing, while you're waiting
for the PO to arrive at your window to do his job, do yours and
1. pray for you, him, the traffic - he is probably a fellow member of christ!
a. for peace, and love, forgiveness
b. Father's word and will in action
c. peace.
2. wisdom for both of you
and remember the word out of your mouth *IS* as powerful as your Father's
as Jesus said, "my words are spirit" and so also are ours.
and `the power of life and death is on the tongue' (James) so use that power
to speak life and love and safety for all involved in the stop, even when more
arrive.
Kitch showed us an excellent example recently.
we are children of light, let us walk IN the light towards each other -
Declare your membership in the body of christ he most likely knows exactly
what you say.
Of this I am sure: you tell him where you sit, stand, walk (psa 1.1)
your sit, walk, and stand ARE your jurisdiction.
I sit on the right hand of the Father.
I stand in the heavenly temple next to my Lord Jesus.
I walk in the kingdom of my heavenly father's dear son.
and you by your words will give Father the invitiation to work the situation for His purpose.
If we are to be adjudicated, and convicted let us be convicted for doing the will of our heavenly Father!
I hope this helps you all.
