I'm not in the US. Our police officers aren't desperate to meet quotas and don't have any reason to assume a driver is armed and/or dangerous. I don't have any reason to believe a conversation with a police officer in my country will lead to anything other than improving my chance to be let go with a warning instead of a fine.

That said, I'm still in my probation period (only started driving a little more than a year ago) and haven't violated any traffic laws yet at all. Most speeding checks are done with unmanned cameras anyway, so your first contact with the orderlies will be a flash followed by a stern letter a few weeks later.
