No, but I've been pulled over for absolutely no reason at all. I was let go without any issue, but something about me made the officer suspicious, although he couldn't find any reason to keep me. He asked me questions about what I was doing (I was driving home from work) and I answered them honestly and politely as possible, even after he wasn't able to provide an answer to my polite question, "what seems to be the problem, officer?".
I know the consensus here is to refuse to answer any questions, but I think if I had tried that approach in this situation, I would have spent the night in jail (and maybe longer, depending on the availability of a judge).
I was pretty pissed off at the time, but I only let myself show it after he let me go.
