Lucky cop but if there is no law requiring a driver to prostrate himself in the face of Law enforcement the failure to act like you did isn't cause to see a trouble maker. Do you put your hands up when a stranger walks to your window? Your conduct doesn't need to be tailored to fit the officer's wish list but doing so is a favor to the officer for sure. If I'm annoyed and disrespectful to a cop while being pulled over there is no reason I should receive a different treatment from that officer than you received. They don't get to determine privilege(private law) based on your level sub-servitude towards authority. That's dangerous stuff.
