Something I learned from a friend is to ask permission for every movement or at the very least narrate and move slowly.

"I'm going to reach in the glovebox for my registration. Is that ok?"

I think it's the only way to protect yourself from their hyper-nervousness.

Edit: friend and I are also white.
