Your best bet is to roll down your window a little bit and slide out your ID and registration/insurance (depends on the state) and if you really are uncomfortable ask the officer to radio in for another unit. Usually if a male officer makes the stop on a woman they can call in a female officer. From working with the police in my town (and I know this will vary from town to town) we only have one officer per car, but as soon as any one officer on patrol makes a stop, another unit is dispatched to back them up, no matter what.
