I was speeding this morning (going to work and all) - and got pulled over. However, after being notified I was driving 85 in 65 mph zone (highway) - the officer told me to slow down and drove away. I did not get a ticket or a written warning - nothing whatsoever. Is he going to send them to my address, or am I off the hook this time?
I know the question is ridiculous, but I have never been stopped before, so have no clue what the procedures are.

For some reason you got off the hook. If he ever catches you again you will be in trouble for sure.

I would have thought had you been "nicked" you would have been given a ticket on the spot, You were either lucky that you caught the officer on a good day, or you had not completed the required distance at the higher speed. In the event take this as a warning, Better late than DEAD

the difference between a written warning and a verbal warning is........ the cop is going to let you off "this" time with a written warning but its in their computer now and if you get stopped again they have a record of it and you'll probably get a larger fine since you were warned....a verbal warning is if the cop just doesnt want to write out a ticket and is in a good mood just dont let the same cop catch you speeding again..he/she may not be so forgiving the next time...you just recieved a verbal warning.

You usually get some type of note or ticket at the time, but I do not know all the laws in your state. Did he ask for drivers licence, ID, etc. If not then you may be a Lucky lad.

He gave you a verbal warning, and let you off the hook. He also noted your plate number. If he catches you again, you get the full ticket.

No, he is not going to send you a ticket. You just got off lucky. Slow down.

No ticket is no ticket and there are no points to deal with or fines...count yourself lucky and slow down
