Being pulled over by LEO

Never have been, and don't plan to be. Very curious as to the actual procedure if it happened. Now I'm sure the officer would come to the side door ( by passenger up front on our DP).

So should I get up and open the door and step out to meet them, or allow the wife to unlock the door. If you allow them to step inside or you open the door to them have you given up your right to being searched as we invited them in? Or let's say they climb the step and sorta put a arm inside on the dash. Just wondering what the legal ramifications would be. Personally our dogs wouldn't take kindly to their entrance.

If anyone has had this happen what has it gone like? I as many others believe in protecting our rights. Just curious if making them stand outside raises flags on their end. I certainly wouldn't invite them to sit in my car if that were the case.

Just pass the info needed out the screen door opening?
Might be a silly post. Just has me wondering what most people would do

Best advise is to stay IN your rig, and keep your empty hands insight. IF, you are reaching for anything out of the officer's line of sight, say so beforehand. Don't make quick moves as that spooks law enforcement as well. Do exactly as the officer instructs you to do, and do not run under any circumstances. Everything is up to the officer - not going outside your rig - unless you are instructed to do so. Don't pull over in an unsafe place, and turn your rig off.
