Exactly.

In your country only eight or nine people a year die from firearms. In the US it's thousands. Last year one hundred twenty-one police officers were shot to death, not including those shot and wounded. Because of this.... Police in the US have valid reason to fear being shot. Thus, when ever police come across someone with a hand gun during a confrontation everything gets shut down until everyone has been searched is decided not to be a threat.

If police in the US pull a gun on you and tell you not to move.... You don't move. If you do, you can get shot. When police say "don't move" it does not mean "get out of the car".
