What should I do when I'm stopped by the Police?

  • New Hampshire law requires that motorists pull as far to the right as practical and come to a complete stop on the approach of any emergency vehicle with emergency lights and/or siren activated.
  •  exit your vehicle unless asked to do so by the officer.
  • DO keep your hands in plain view on the steering wheel, so the officer can see them. This is a standard safety measure for the officer - s/he doesn't know you. Please do not be insulted. If the stop occurs at night, please turn on your interior dome light.
  •  make any sudden movements inside the vehicle, especially toward the floorboard, 后座, 或者手套箱区域.
  • 如果你的执照, 车辆注册登记, or insurance information are not within reach, tell the officer where they are located before you attempt to retrieve them.
  • Avoid becoming argumentative. Arguing will not change an officer's decision to issue a summons or a warning. If you disagree with receiving a summons, you can argue the case at the Portsmouth District Court before a judge.
