They can ask you anything they want, for just about any reason. Did you think there was a rule?

On a traffic stop, they can make any type of inquiry, assuming they had a reason to stop you. They have to tend to business of writing the ticket, in a reasonable amount of time, and then hand it to you. At that point you are told (or you can ask) about being "free to go." If he says yes, you can drive off. If he says "Yes, but I would like to ask you more questions." It is then a voluntary contact and you can decline his questions, and leave. If the police completes the ticket and then withholds your paperwork, or license, for the purpose of further detaining you for questioning, your answers may not be admissable in court, and you can file a grievance with the officer's department.

If you file a complaint, they can ask you anything, since you initiated the contact.

If you are a suspect, and not in custody, they can ask you anything until you choose to walk away or close the door.

If you are in custody, they must advise you of your Miranda rights (to silence) and right to have an attorney present. Usually they must get you to either agree in writing or verbally, before they proceed with questioning.
