First time pulled over in the Z

This is unheard of. It seemed like the officer was trying to get you to do something stupid. Good that you held your composure. If that were me, I'd do

This is unheard of. It seemed like the officer was trying to get you to do something stupid. Good that you held your composure. If that were me, I'd do a brake check first to get him to stay back. If that does not work, downshift and stay away. Probably get stopped at that point. There was a time when I was stopped by an officer for my exhaust and he complimented me, asked where I got it from, said he was a car guy too, exchanged business cards, shook hands, and let me off.

I'm gonna slowly brake to a dead stop and turn on the emergency signal and sit in the car.

If he comes up and ask why am I doing that, I will just simply tell him 1) he was following too closely and freak me out 2) because he's following too closely thus his lights blind my eyes and I couldn't drive.

If he wants to called EMS, I'll let him and when the medics come I gonna tell the medics the same thing and have them file a report for me.

I'm pretty sure this is common, they will follow you closely at night to see if you'll take off or break the law some other way, blinding on purpose so you can't see that its a cop.
