How To Escape a Speeding Ticket By Getting Away With
A Warning
by: Ron B.
Learn the tips on how to act when stopped by a police officer and
what to say to increase your chances of getting away with a
warning and not being ticketed. If you want to save yourself from
the worries and expenses of dealing with a speeding ticket then
after reading this article you'll know what to do when stopped by
an officer.
If a police patrol car pulls up behind you with lights flashing,
the key to the next few minutes is keeping things safe for you
and the police officer. Slow down and carefully pull over to the
right shoulder, making sure to use your turn signal.
If you are uncomfortable stopping in a relatively unpopulated or
unlighted area, slow down, turn on your hazard lights and
indicate by a hand signal that you are going up ahead. Then pull
over as soon as you get to a more populated area. Police officers
understand this concern.
If it's nighttime, turn on your dome light once you have stopped.
Stay in the car, unless you are told to get out. It's a challenge
to the officer when you get out since officers are very cautious
because of the high rate of attacks in these situations.
Roll down the window and keep your hands in view on the steering
wheel. If you have to get your driver's license, registration or
insurance card from the glove box, a purse or other enclosed
area, tell the officer before you do it.
The key is to play it cool and keep it safe. The easier and safer
you make the process for the officer to approach you the more
likely the officer will let you go just with a warning and not
assign you a speeding ticket.
Now what to say to the police officer?
Of course the process of keeping it safe for the officer is only
half of the game. Next you have to persuade officer to let you go
with a warning.
The first thing the police officer will ask you after stopping
your car will probably be whether you know why you have been
stopped.
Police officer will want you to admit that you were speeding and
that is what most drivers do - they admit that they did actually
speed and they receive a speeding ticket for it. A speeding
ticket not only costs them $150 but you are also dealing with
your insurance premiums.
Most people get pretty nervous when they got stopped by an
officer. The secret is to stay calm, speak to the officer in
respectable tone and politely ask whether the officer can let you
go with a warning.
The first question the officer will probably ask is whether you
know why you have been stopped. You basically have 3 things to
say:
1) Admit that you were speeding. The good side is that you are
being honest and the officer appreciates it. You may have a
chance that the officer will let you go with a warning.
The bad side is that if you get assigned a ticket and you had
admitted that you were indeed speeding then it will be used
against you at court. Officers usually take notes on what you
say. So if you feel that you will get assigned a speeding ticket
then you really shouldn't directly admit that you were speeding.
2) Deny that you were speeding. This approach usually creates
tension between you and the police officer. If you don't have a
reasonable argument to convince the officer that you weren't
speeding then you will get assigned a ticket.
The good side for this approach is that you will have more chance
to beating your speeding ticket at court, since you didn't admit
that you were speeding.
3) Don't admit that you were speeding but neither deny it. This
approach may actually be the best one. When the officer says that
you were stopped for speeding you can say: "Oh, I see…" and then
you can, in a respectful voice, give an excuse to an officer that
you didn't notice your speed bar or was too tired after work or
any other excuse that doesn't sound right downright lies.
