How to Beat a Speeding Ticket in California
You're driving down the freeway at seventy miles per hour and all of a sudden, you see red lights flashing behind you. You get that feeling in your stomach that is all too familiar to some of us drivers and you know what is ahead. "Pull over immediately" says the officer on the loudspeaker and you comply by pulling over onto the shoulder of the freeway and wait patiently while the officer runs your plates through the computer.
Some of us have never been pulled over before while others have experienced this situation one too many times. Here are some tips that may help you get out of the ticket even before the officer writes you up:
- Be calm and polite to the officer. You want your attitude to assist
you in achieving your desired outcome not hinder it. Whatever you do,
do not argue with the officer or create any sort of animosity. Arguing
with the officer does not increase your likelihood of leniency so treat
him as if you would want to be treated.
- Turn your car off and make the interior of the car completely visible
so that the officer can see into your car by turning the lights on. This
is so that you can take away any unnecessary tension that the officer
may have in pulling a car over. He does not know that your car is not
loaded with drugs or weapons and they are trained to expect the worse.
By having your hands in plain sight and the interior of the car visible,
you are showing complete submission to him and will be better prepared
to explain your situation.
- Be respectful to the officer and comply with his requests. Do not start
asking him questions or begin pleading with him until after he has gotten
through his initial questions. Once he has gotten your information ask
him politely if you can speak with him regarding your speeding violation.
Plead your case in a very polite and non-combative manner. Most officers
will be lenient with you if you simply admit to speeding and tell them
that his will cripple you financially. Let them know that you are very
sorry for speeding and that you realized you were speeding but felt the
flow of traffic was also going at the same speed but you were at fault
for assuming that.
- If the officer does not let you go and he decides to write you up a
ticket, do not change your attitude into a combative one because you want
to be as inconspicuous as possible to the officer.
