An officer pulled me over one day in the middle of the afternoon after I had just dropped off my daughter at her dance class. I had no idea why I was being pulled over. The officer said it looked like I was swerving. I told him I was just fishing around in my pocketbook for a lifesaver (which I was), and he was very nasty to me. I think he was going to give me a ticket for reckless driving or something, but just then he got a call on his radio and he had to leave right away - probably for some REAL problem. He just looked at me in disgust and said that I was "lucky" and he left. That little episode just confirmed even more how cops are not much more than bullies. It's hard to have any respect for them whatsoever.

I had just topped over a hill and my truck sped up coasting down the other side. I only worked a couple of hundred feet from where he pulled me over, and I explained that I wasn't in a hurry to get there ( hot plant). He told me to take it easy from now on and watch my speed. No ticket, I've never had a ticket since I started driving in 1958.

It was 3 AM and I was on the way to my Mom's after work. He stopped me for speeding, going through a stop sign and for having bald tires. (He was really cute! I asked him if he had taken a course in Police Science at a local college and he said, "Yes!!" Gave me a warning and asked me to have coffee with him sometime! (I had to leave for a trip in the morning with my Mom so no coffee but, the next day, I stopped at a tire place and replaced the bald tires; two minutes after leaving the tire place, I got stopped by a police officer who was doing a "tire check" and taking unsafe cars off the road! How's that for two strokes of really good luck??

I look them in the eye, call them Sir, and tell them the absolute truth. It always shocks them too. It's not an excuse but it works for me. I usually get a warning or told to slow it down.

I like to go the "I don't speak English" route.
No entiendo inglés.
It only worked once because I didn't realize the cop was Latino, and he thought it was funny. A lot of the time I just suck it up and take the ticket. It doesn't happen often anyway, and I usually deserve it.

It worked.
I told him I was speeding because my son, who was 13 at the time, was waiting alone for me after band practice at night.
It was the truth. But he told me I had to slow down and let me go with a warning.
