He did get out of his car and within striking distance of the cop. He got out to pick up the ticket he tore up and threw out the window. The Trooper could've reacted physically at that point, but he didn't. He was confident in his ability to protect himself and not fearful.
Asking nicely is the difference maker. Maybe this cop would've asked nicely and the subject would've complied....or maybe not, but you extend respect and courtesy first and go from there.
