Fighting Traffic Tickets Can Cost Money, Try To Avoid Getting Them
Fighting traffic tickets is a real hassle. It results in time missed from work, possible fines to pay, higher insurance premiums, and more. Sometimes persuading a police officer to not give you a ticket is better. Understand, persuade does not mean bribe, or otherwise break the law. Rather convince him or her why they would rather not give you one.
When you see the lights flashing in the rear view mirror, always pull over in a safe spot as soon as possible. Be sure to use your directional signal when doing this. Once safely stopped, put on the hazard lights.
If you have the radio on, turn it off immediately. Do not just turn it down, shut it off. Otherwise it may appear to have been a distraction, or even an act of disrespect.
Open the vehicle's window before the officer approaches the vehicle. If he or she has to motion for you to do so, you already have a problem. Keep your hands on the steering wheel unless you are asked to get your license and registration. Then, do not simply reach out for them. Understandably this will create concern in an individual who works a potentially dangerous job. Instead say to the officer "they are in the glove box, my purse, in the back seat, etc.".
Whatever you do, stay seated in the vehicle with the doors kept closed. Do not allow any passengers to attempt to exit the vehicle. Otherwise, this will certainly be taken as an aggressive gesture.
When asked, " do you know why I stopped you"? The best answer is usually no, not really, or something of this sort. Do not admit, "oh yes, I was speeding", etc. If you do, you have already admitted guilt. This will certainly be used against you when fighting the ticket. If you are issued a ticket, plead not guilty, and be ready to defend yourself. Delay the court date as long as you can. The is the best way to keep the officer from showing up.
Above all else, use common sense, and impeccable manners. It is surprising how many people get out of a traffic ticket because they behaved like a decent person. - 21396
