I\'ve been pulled over 4 times, and have yet to recieve a ticket. Cops are generally easy to deal with if you\'re cooperative and polite. So many people get so defensive with cops and always think they\'re the victim when all they\'re doing is their job. Just treat the guy like a human being, not some law enforcing robot, and more times than none they\'ll let you off with a warning.
My only gripe is that once my car broke down and I popped my hood and waved down a cop car and it drove right past me; that happened twice in a time period of like 20 minutes.
