Get the window fixed?

Buy a bumper sticker that says use door on right - but don't put it on the front bumper.

Drive ghetto - front seat as far back as possible/seat reclined - rear window more assessable..

Put a sticky note on your gun telling him the window doesn't work, and point it at him to make sure he sees it.

Just loudly say it does not roll down , or do the motion and say " it doesn't work!!" and barely open the door. Let him be the guide

Try and explain to the cop, that your window cant be rolled down. You can motion through the glass. If that doesnt work, very slowly crack your door and on the crack - speak through and let them know. Then open the door, placing your hands where they can see them.

Make sure both hands are on the steering wheel. Speak loudly and try to pronunciate your words (for lip reading) that the window is broken. If the officer doesn't understand, try to hand gesture it to them while keeping both of your hands visible at all times. Follow the officer's instructions from that point.

yell thru the window that it cannot be rolled down, or open the door slightly and tell the officer you cannot roll the window down and exit the vehicle if he approves.

Talk real LOUD .

Make sure you car door is unlocked and keep your hands on the steering wheel as the officer approaches the car.

Make a vertical circular motion with one hand, while pointing to the window with the other hand and shake your head in a negative gesture.

Point to the officer to have him open the door and keep your hands high on the steering wheel and visible.

Roll down the back one and explain. Also, ask that he step back so that you can open the door.
