Getting out and approaching the officer will really tick him/her off.

I discovered another thing that tick them off: I was following a friend's
car. Said friend got stopped by a police car (I can't remember why,
missing sticker, or something like that); well, I just stopped
behind them both, thinking that I'll just wait for whatever they were
up to to be over; ooops, big mistake.

Yes, these are basic things they teach (or at last should) in driver
education classes. Never put an officer in a position that could even
be construed as threatening. Boxing in his car is just not a good idea.
You should have pulled well past and then waited.
