What do you do when you get pulled over for speeding?

speed limits don't matter.i found a way to avoid getting pulled over in the first place. this only works on freeways and divided highways. if a cop is driving in the opposite direction and you know he pegged you speeding, don't slow down. floor it. start driving as fast as you can get your car to go. by the time the cop tuns around to get behind you, your out of sight and a couple miles away. so he doesn't know if you got off or where you are. and if he decides to try to catch you there's too much traffic between the 2 of you. and he has to drive faster than you are driving to even catch up. sometimes if your speeding fast enough they wont even try going after you. Ive used this technique many times. just don't try it during rush hour. you need a long open stretch of road to put a safe distance between you and the cop. and since they never got close they don't have your plates. Ive never been pulled over using this technique. besides stopping for the police just isn't worth the hassle anymore.

i carry a portable digital recorder in my glove box. when i get pulled over i get it out, set it on the dash in plain sight, turn it on, and tell the cop that i will be recording the incident in case i need evidence in the future...

i do this because my friend recorded a cop refusing to show him the radar gun, played the tape in court and the judge threw out the case.

this could just be where i'm from though.

Ask them how fast you were going, then ask to see the radar, if they refuse to show you say ok and get on with your day or you will be fined for disorderly conduct. Then, if you must, go to court and plead not guilty =]

there are many devices cops are able to use. they can even use there own estimates. It becomes very easy for cops to determine your speed without a device just by experience. and all spedomoters in cars are not correct actually most of them are off by a few. cop doesnt have to show you the radar. you can try to fight it in court and the cop will show up and show there evidence to prove you guilty.

You can ask to see the radar, but there is nothing that says the officer has to show it to you. Having you exit the vehicle to go back to the patrol vehicle puts your safety and the officers safety in danger, but you can always ask.

On a side note.... why would the officer lie about your speed? There are plenty of people speeding, they do not need to make up a speed to make a stop.
