If the stop results in a criminal charge or citation, yes, the officer must inform you of what you're being cited for.

If the stop does not result in a citation or punishment, the officer does not have to inform you.

Most anything can be asked in the Investigative Stage that is pertinent to the reason you was pulled over. If it enters the Accuseatory Stage the Miranda warning must be given and still questions can be asked. It is the decision of the driver as to whether he/she wants to answer. This is especially evident in a Drunk Driving Case when alcohol becomes noted in combination with erratic driving. Remember it is not whether questions can be asked, it is whether or not you want to answer them and the answers being allowed in court as evidence based on when the Miranda Warning was given.

You always have the right not to answer questions of the police. However, should you choose not to answer questions, the officer will have only the information he has and can gather without your assistance to decide whether he is going to make an arrest, issue a citation, etc. You have to decide whether it's in your interest to answer questions or to remain silent.

Usually only long enough for them to assess you (by speaking with you) then writing and issuing the ticket (if one is issued).

However, this process may be somewhat lengthened depending on the circumstances (which are not given) - the number of violations you are being cited for - the length of time the dispatcher takes to give them the information on your drivers license and registration status. ALSO - there are other factors, such as awaiting the arrival of a drug dog, or a back-up unit.

All-in-all, depending on the circumstances, it could be up to 10 minutes, occasionally more.

If they are sworn law enforcement officers, yes. Depending on what jurisdiction they work for they may actually possess MORE jurisdictional powers than some municipal departments.

Can a tribal officer pull you over for speeding?

Yes, depending on where you are and how that state handles the police powers of tribal officers. If you are on Indian land, the tribal officer has the authority to enforce all laws, including traffic laws. Off of Indian land, some tribal officers retain their police powers and some do not. If a tribal officer attempted to pull you over and you refused to stop, and you were off of Indian land, he would probably request a local non-tribal officer or sheriff's deputy to assist him.
