Just FYI to anyone else reading this,

Mr psycho copper who then ordered me to get out of the car.

This is actually perfectly legal for the cop to do. It's a dick move for a minor traffic infraction, but the courts have ruled they can do it, and you cannot refuse.

Flashlight still in his hand he went through my vehicle and finds the bong within seconds.

This is NOT legal for the cop to do unless you give them permission OR they have probable cause. They cannot search your vehicle without your permission if all they stopped you for was a minor traffic infraction. Even if they make you get out.
