根据原文描述，“a California policeman stopped a driver for failing to stop at a red light”，说明警察拦下司机是因为司机 没有在红灯前停下，属于违反交通规则的行为。

因此，警察最初拦下他的直接原因是 检查司机是否遵守交通规则，对应的正确选项是：

B. check whether the driver kept the traffic rules in mind（检查司机是否牢记交通规则）。

其他选项不符合原文主要信息：

A 问家庭姓名并不是拦车的主要原因；

C 虽然提到违反交规的原因，但警察一开始拦下是因为他闯红灯，不是为了调查原因；

D 并不符合原文逻辑，警察并不知道司机会欺骗他。

答案：B
