This is funny how we are so confused in America from the movies or the cops themselves. ask yourself if you have ever heard of anyone being arrested and convicted for failure to obey an officer. just about everyone arrested has dis-obeyed an officer and millions of people have done this without being arrested. it is a bluff by cops to create fear and obediance and they know it ,if it was not a bluff they would not use it as a threat but arrest you!!!!!!

Disobeying a police officer is not an actual title to any criminal statute (at least in Texas). Some incorporated cities, or counties may adopt an ordinance that states that you cannot disobey a police officer, which would then make it a Class C misdemeanor enforcible only in that city/county. However, keep in mind there are only 2 offenses you cannot be arrested for in Texas: Open Container (which doe not mean DWI/DUI minor), and speeding. Everything else in that law book is an arrestable offense. A law as simple as fail to signal intent (not turning your blinker on) is an arrestable offense.
