Apparently having a AAA card is sorta like a get outta jail free card, that's what my doc told me.
I was pulled over in my supra once, scared the living shit outta me. Cop just "nice Supra!" and he let me go. That was bizarre

Some AAA packages come with a bail voucher, which will pay your bail up to a certain amount if you are arrested for something relating to your motor vehicle. but theirs a list of thinks that it doesnt cover thats a mile long such as drunk driving, evading, wreckless endangerment, exc. The list is so extensive I couldnt think of a situation where it would actually help you.

Where's the fun in that?...and you mean to tell me youve never gotten a ticket? Have you ever driven your supra on a street?

Seriously though, ive found the best way to get out of a ticket is to be friendly, polite, and honest, but not a kissass or really nervous, you can get off the hook even with a long driving record. If you do this and still get a ticket you were prolly getting one no matter what.

The get out of a ticket free card (for guys anyways) is if you can make the cop laugh. I got bagged doin like 70 in a 30 once. I was coming from the junkyard where i found a foot or so of large chain. I was wearing it around my neck like Mr. T. The cop thought it was hilariousl, and let me go with a verbal warning. Basically when they see something funny they wanna tell their friends about it...and if they give you a ticket their friends are gonna tell them theyre an asshole for giving you a ticket when they tell the story.

I dont know how things work in australia, but here in massachusetts we get pulled over for stupid things like 40 in a 30 and rolling thru a stopsign a 1/2mph when theres no one else around. around here cops will hastle for for breathing. One day a cop pulled out of a dirt road right in front of me at night with not even his headlights on. i was only going like 30 mph and i almost hit him. he then tried to give me a ticket for obstructing an emerency vehicle. Like i said i dont know about australia but around here you dont have to drive like a complete jackass to get a ticket. My original comment was all in good fun but if you want to tweak out about it go right ahead.

I'm sorry, but where I'm from, getting pulled over doing 70 in a 30 IS driving like a dickhead and endangering others.

I got pulled over for "running a red". The cop told me that, so I told him that I felt that was a matter of his opinion, becasue from where I was, I didn feel it was safe for me to stop. Having 3 hot coffees on the passanger seat didnt exactly give me any extra encouragement to spike the brakes either. Anyways, he replied to my "matter of opinion" comment with a "no, you ran a red light, you were speeding and thats a fact" I calmly reminded him that " Its only a fact if you can proove it in court" I didnt get a ticket, just a verbal warning.

About a week later, I pulled a dumb fuck move and burned through 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gear, up to about 180km/h in a 90km/h zone. No one around, except for the cop, who in all fairness I thought was my friend in my Tacoma. The cop asked what I was doing, and I told him that I havent driven my car in over 2 years, and I was "just getting a feel for what it can do" He did a road side inspection, which I managed to somehow pass with my cat-converter sitting in the hatch area. And I was on my way with another verbal warning

I dont dispute 70 in a 30 is wreckless, it is even though it was on a remote road in the middle of fucking nowhere where there were no signs of life other than the cop sitting on the side of the road. I dont dispute i was wrong i was just illustrating how even though you are wrong you can get out of a ticket. This one one occasion, I dont speed around like a fuckin racecar driver all day every day. Maybe you have never screwed around on a backroad in the middle of nowhere before, but i have and id be willing to be the majority of the people on this forum have too. Day to day i drive just like anybody else in my terribly underpowered jetta. and day to day driving its not overwhelmingly difficulty to get pulled over and all was saying is you have a better chance of getting off if your polite, respectful and honest..thats all. I told one story about one incident where ill be the first to admit i was wrong, and your going to imply that im rallying across mass on a daily basis. So if you drive 29 in a 30 and dont ever dare cross that allmighty speed limit why would you be interested in a thread about getting out of a ticket?

It's all just a big game once you understand and accept the rules it's sort of fun ;)

(and a very cute Nanna you are, I was quite relaxed with you driving, normally the worlds worst passenger)

Its a perspective issue. Come and drive in LA, Korea Town in particular. Your dickhead notions are skewed. 40 in 30 zone? rolling through stop signs? give it a rest. He is definitely not a dickhead here. If he is not a dickhead where HE is from then i wouldn't call him a dickhead for shits and make him a dangerous driver. Plus going 30 or 25 in a 30 zone doesn't make you a good driver. Its all about your reaction time and driving abilities not legal speed limits, unless your are a cop.
