I was raised by lawyers, and I think from that I learned how to present myself in a way that is both courteous and has a subtext of "the paperwork involved in fucking with me will crush you." The easy to articulate bits of this include good posture, eye-contact and precise diction. There's probably more to it than that which I'm unaware of. This also seems to work when I get pulled over.

@jchrisa, If you don't mind, please could you let know how to politely convey the subtext etc.? Thanks.

Wish I could help more -- I think if you appear deferrential to the law (more so than the officer), it helps remind the law enforcement officer that they are also subject to the law.
