What To Do To Help Avoid Getting A Ticket If You Are Pulled Over

[MainerMikeBrown]

Getting pulled over by a cop when you're driving down the road enjoying your day can be a rather unpleasant experience, especially if you fear getting a ticket because you're broke.

If you get pulled over by the police, you don't want to be rude to the officer for obvious reasons. However, I don't think it's a good idea to act especially happy either because the officer knows darned well that you're not happy about being pulled over. Hence, if you act overly happy and overly friendly, the officer may feel irritated because he or she may find you to be acting too phony. And that might increase the chances that he or she will give you a ticket.

Psychologists say that if you're pulled over, the officer is less likely to give you a ticket for committing a traffic violation if you tell the officer that you should have known better than to make the mistake. If you instead try to defend yourself and make excuses, the officer is more likely to give you a ticket.

I don't avoid a ticket. If I get one, I know why I got it. If I got one that I felt I didn't deserve, I would fight it. Never had to go to court and fight anything lol

I don't believe it really matters how you act. Usually the officer has made up his mind whether to ticket you before you say a word. The last time I was pulled over I was respectful and followed everything he said to be compliant. All I got was a lot of attitude and a ticket.

Psychologist is right.
I was pulled over by a police officer and backed by a county sheriff.
I complied and gotten off with a warning.
Had no attentions of playing "Smokey and the Bandit".

I have gotten out of a lot of tickets when only going ten or fifteen miles over. But the couple of times I was going over 100 miles an hour, funnily enuf they sure enuf gave me tickets. In fact once they even impounded my vehicle AND I had to post bail. Yup, going reaaal fast they just don't seem to care for
