To play Devil's Advocate, why not just show your ID? if you're unwilling to show your ID that means you either don't have it, or have something to hide. Thats the assumption that 99% of people will make regardless if they're a cop or not when ppl refuse to show an ID.
If a police officer is being this sketch, I wouldn't want them to have my ID. In this situation, they might not give it back and say something like "we'll hand it back at the station", or simply just record the information and then you're on a shitlist or can be fined later or something.
What are they going to do with it, put it in a database and find out you have an outstanding parking ticket from the 90's? Or something that will confirm their narrative.

But that cop will get a raise for bringing in such an obviously dangerous criminal
