I just start crying. When they see a grown man crying cause they got a ticket it usually gets me a warning.
-
My wife is in labor, is a good one.
-
I don't make excuses. The two times I got tickets for speeding I was, in fact, speeding. So, I just accept the consequences of my actions. The last time I got a speeding ticket, I even surprised the state trooper by thanking him for the job that he was doing. I waited until after he had given me the ticket so that he would not think that I was just saying it to get out of the ticket.
-
I think the best and funiest one was on a persuite show where they chase and catch the speeders and this guy is pulled-over and the officer goes up to the car and says " sir- you were going 70 in a 45 zone" , the guy says " I'm sorry officer but i'm on my last beer, would you like one cuz I'm on my way to the store to get more? he got out of the ticket but went to jail to dry out.
-
Believe it or not I've said, "I was going fast because I don't know where I'm at, and I just want to get home" (with the "pathetic face") and it worked..TWICE! Damn, I'm good.
-
I have only been caught with camera's, never actually been pulled over by the cops, so I never got the chance to try an excuse. I would say (if I did get pulled over) that there is no excuse and to book me, as I would deserve it (I would smile too, in hope they would take pity!).
-
But i'm black! It got me out of the ticket, but I did get thrown in jail.
-
I was direct with the cop and told them they made a mistake in their judgement.They had to leave without giving a ticket.This has happened a few times and has worked because I was as firm in my conviction as they were in theirs.I would also like to add I knew they did not have a leg to stand on in trying to give me a ticket,and both knew it would be thrown out of court in my favour.
-
I did not give him a story. We played --> you show me yours and I'll show you mine. Lord I was bad back in the days.
-
Many years ago - driving home drunk - and said the only reason the car wasn't going straight was because it needed new shocks & struts. He glared & me & said "Get your car fixed" and left. hehe
-
got out of speeding by being honest. He asked if I knew how fast I was going and I said no, but I'm going as fast as my little car will take me cuz I'm running very late!! He told me to keep it at the limit.
-
Really happened! My wife and I foster kittens for a local animal shelter, and I had just picked up a sick kitten that was sneezing. I had her in a cat carrier in the passenger seat and I got pulled over (I was speeding technically, but I was also staying with the flow of traffic). I got pulled over by a State Trooper. HUGE guy, shaved head, the stereotype of a tough guy. I rolled down my window and when he looked in the car, the kitten sneezed. I told him that I was taking the kitten home as a foster cat. He got this HUGE smile and said that he got his dog from the same place. Then he said "You get that kitten home and take care of her sir!" and he waved me off.

o0h - got out of anothre speeding ticket when the baby was crying in the back seat & I said I was rushing himj to the dr cuz he was sick.... but I wasn't going that fast anyway -- still got me out of a ticket
-
sorry...i have to take a big dump
-
cop pulled me over for leaning to low on my motorcycle .i said give me the ticket. went to court judge laughed and threw it out.
-
a state trooper pulled me over, i told him that my spedometer just went haywire and i didnt know what was happening. he told me to get it fixed. also told me i hadnt been wearing a seatbelt when i actually was, and i said sir, i always where my seatbelt. i got out of it, but i really think that the only reason he pulled me was because he thought i was my sister. when he got to the window he looked kinda dazed.
-
I was running late for work.
-
ROTFLMAO---Not me..but years ago I had a Japanese friend..she had been born in Canada and didn't speak japanese. When she got pulled over she started to cry and pretended that she didn't speak English.
-
There was gum under the gas pedal, and it got stuck down at full speed.
-
I had a brake light out. I was on my way from the auto parts store back home with a new brake light sitting on the passenger seat, so I just showed it to the cop and he let me go. I'm probably the only person on earth who pays attention to the sign saying not to work on your car in their parking lot.
-
Expired? No way... I've got anther year on that!
-
I said my wallet was in the trunk purely so I could get out of the car. I was about 7 months pregnant at the time. He let me go.
-
my brake wouldn't go all the way down.
-
I know I don't have a liscence, but look at these people...They couldn't drive themselves home! (refering to 3 people passed out and drooling all over themselves) I wasn't plannig on being DD but, it just turned out that way.
-
You cant book me...im your sister (to my brother who is a police officer)
-
Well, I got pulled over as I pulled into the parking lot of the restaurant I worked for, so they just let me go to work. The best excuse I gave was when I was pulled doing like 90 in a 45 and when the officer came to the window, I just started hysterically crying and saying I had to go home and see my husband. He didn't ask much, just told me to slow down and let me go.
-
I had to pee reaaaaaallly bad!!
-
Only in my dreams. Twice in the past month I blew by parked police cars and I should have been pulled over. I have been waiting 25 years for this moment... someday it will come. I think you meant to say talk your way out of getting a ticket. Unless of course you are a police officer and you pull yourself over. Getting pulled over by a sexy cop could lead to some fun with handcuffs.... wink.. wink.
-
No never because i drive under the limit all the time.
-
16 1/2 years ago,,no I got a ticket
-
No, but my mom has. And she got out of it aalll the time; EVEN with two small children IN the car w/her. What can I say, she's smoooth!! :D
-
I have never been pulled over for speeding. But I seriously doubt I could talk my way out of it. I am not that cute or clever. lol
-
Yeah, two years ago. I told the state trooper I didn't know where I was at, I was lost. Well, that worked I guess!
-
Yes, twice. I was pulled over for going 35 in a 35.. of course the officer said that it was 20 when I was going 35, but I wasn't. I gave him my licence and then he said "oh you live there?" and i told him and then he said "how old are you hun?" and then he said "and you go to school at the university?" and he asked some other really personal questions. I had to pay 50 dollars to the town. The other time I got pulled it was a trooper who must have thought I was my sister! He looked confused when he came up to the window. He said I was speeding and wasn't wearing my seatbelt, which I had the seatbelt on since I'd left the house, and I told him that! I also told him that my dad's blazer (which I was driving) speedometer bounces when I drive so i didn't know how fast I was going! He didn't even look at my license or registration, he just said "ok have a nice day" and I left!
-
Yes, I have been pulled over for speeding a "few" times and the only one I have gotten out of was when I got pulled over on my 18th BIRTHDAY!
-
I was in a hurry one night on my way home from work, and got pulled over. Luckily I knew the cop, I wait on him 2 or 3 times a week. I explained the reason I was speeding, and he let me go with a "Just slow down, you don't want to wreck and kill yourself before you get there." I love my job...
-
I have to admit, I have a lead foot. I've been stopped quite a few times for speeding, in quite a few different states. I'm guessing here, but my average is about 50/50. When I got a ticket the speed was usually cut down some so the ticket wouldn't be too expensive. When I received warnings, I don't think it was b/c I talked my way out of it. I think it was because I was polite and didn't give the cop a hard time.
-
In the space of one year I was stopped 7 times for speeding. Four of the times the officer gave a warning instead of a ticket. Then I had to go to driving school to keep my insurance from going through the roof.
-
ive been with my bf when hes been stopped, it was late at night and icy anyway he seen the police car in the side street and started to brake, the police car followed us quite a while up the street then pulled him over. he didnt get a ticket so he was v v lucky
-
Yes, in Japan with an international driver's license. When I pulled it out, he saw that I was from Hawaii and told me about how wonderful a honeymoon his daughter hand in Hawaii and let me go with a stern warning, "You, no go too fast! OK? Slowly, slowly..."
-
Yes and Yes. The ticket I had to pay was when I was caught on a Speed camera, they are merciless.
-
I was driving down a rural highway with a buddy of mine, blasting the radio. Cop lights us up, and comes to the window. Asks, "Do you know how fast you were going?" I say, "55?" He says, "56!" I nearly said, "So?" Instead, I asked what the speed limit was. Apparently, I went through a town of 119, where the speed limit changed to 45. $63
-
I haven’t used an excuse but I have had a pretty special time! I was in a downtown area which isn’t the best part of town, and I forgot to use my blinker. So I got pulled over not by 1 cop but 2. So he told me why I was pulled over, and asked what I was doing at 1am in this part of town. I told him I was just trying to get home. This was true all of the on ramps were closed! So he asked for registration insurance and license. So I couldn’t find my registration or insurance and I could get my license out of my wallet. So I handed him my wallet. And he asked if it was my current address and I told him yes and he said have a good night ma’am so off I went.
-
I'm in a hurry because I have to poop. Unbelievably it worked he let me go asap.
-
I've never used an excuse. However, I used to bring coffee to the local PD a few years back. There was one day, I ran a yellow-turning-red stop light, with a broken muffler and an expired inspection stiker. (I konw, I was young and dumb.) Anyways, the cop that was sitting across the way pulled me over. I handed him my paperwork, and he walked about halfway to his cruiser before he turned around and came back and asked if I was the girl who brought coffee to the station. I said yes. He said OK, well I could give you a ticket for XX amount of dollars, but I want you to save your money and fix your car, ok? Make sure you get it inspected as soon as you can. Yay for me!
-
The only time I got out of one was when I was honest. I apologized and said I was wrong. He let me go.
-
skip right on past plan A (flirt your butt off) because it doesn't work any more. cops just don't care nowadays, they're gonna give you a ticket either way...unless they're super troopers hehe!
-
Do the speed limit.
-
Tell the truth. Cops are so used to being lied to when someone tells the truth it makes them stand out from the crowd.
-
I told the PIG that I had a `phone call from my GF and was on a CERTAIN PROMISE,he wished me well,did not work the second time.
-
I have to get to Toilet, it is an emergency..... No! 3 points and £60 fine.

Bear in mind this was about 20 years ago but I got pulled over after leaving a club. I had been fishing and drinking all day, then hit the club. I stopped drinking around 10 because I was seeing double. Left at 12 and blew the stop sign about 100 yards from the club. See the lights behind me. Bear in mind, I've got full beers and empties all over the place from fishing. The cop says,"Do you know why I pulled you over". I say no. He says,"You ran that stop sign and were driving without your light on". I say, "I'm sorry officer, if I had my lights on, I probably would have seen the stop sign" He asked if I had been drinking. I said yes. He asked how many and I said I don't know, stopped counting at about 12.(it was probably close to 20) He put me in the squad car, ran the tags etc. Then he said he was going to call me a cab. I said that's ok my buddy has a rental a few blocks away. He drove me there. Had to pick up the keys and pay the fines at the police station the next day, but I didn't get a dui. Sometimes a sense of humor comes in handy. Luckily the officer had on:)
