The Fifth Amendment provides that you may not be forced to incriminate yourself under any circumstances, so you can always just ask them to tell you what they stopped you for.

If you ever get asked “Do you know why I stopped you” ALWAYS tell no. Under no circumstance tell them something that might be interpreted as a confession. Because if you did in fact got pulled over for something valid, you are being fucked twice. Once for breaking the law itself and twice for even knowing about it and still doing it.
