Lesson Overview

31.19 – How to Stay Calm When Cops Pull You Over: Getting stopped by police can make your heart race, especially if stories of violence flood your mind. Preparation reduces fear—keep hands visible, speak respectfully, and avoid sudden movements. Calm breathing lowers adrenaline and helps you think clearly under pressure. Remember your rights: you can ask if you’re free to leave and remain silent beyond identification. Staying composed doesn’t mean surrender; it means protecting yourself smartly. Record details afterward and share the experience with trusted adults if something felt wrong. Communities are working to improve accountability, but your focus is staying safe in the moment. Practicing scenarios beforehand helps replace panic with precision. Respectful firmness communicates control and maturity. Courage often looks like calm in situations that invite chaos.
