fight the injustice in court in front of a judge who actually knows the law.

Until recent video evidence proving shady copping was available, this was basically impossible.

dont assume some podunk cop knows the ins-and-outs of every law on the books and make a stand in a stressful situation

Agreed that this is the smart approach, but we should not have to be so wary of pissing off a trained professional who is supposed to be the cooler head. Their training tells them to diffuse situations, yet you so often don't see them doing this. I also don't find it acceptable how little so many cops know about the actual laws.
