Wow. Sounds like you got this down pat. I think the safest is to be polite to the cop giving you the ticket..If you try and act like a wise guy or real tough he will just get mad and really pile on the tickets..Do not try threatening him or say “see you in court” in a mean tone.Then your case will stick in his head and he will remember you. (I deal with cops all the time so I know)Most cops are just trying to do their job and don’t try to be mean about it, unless you start up!

Some helpful tips:If you are pulled over for speeding and the officer asks you “Is there any reason why you were speeding”? the safest answer is “Im sorry, I did not think that I was speeding. I am a very careful driver and would not speed on purpose.” Notice that you are not admitting guilt, but you also are not calling him a liar, which would be a BIG mistake. Another tip is timing. The time to ask for leniency is BEFORE the officer goes back to the police car. If you have a good compelling reason say so.. Keep it brief and reasonable no long drashos..A good line is the following. ” I understand what you said and i am not going to argue with you, sir. I would never break the law on purpose. Could you please give me a warning? I try very hard to be a good citizen and the last thing I want is to receive a citation.” It might work, it might not. But it cannot hurt you. The main thing is to be POLITE.Good luck!
