Got My first speeding ticket, and a breathalyzer
Yup, got me a speeding ticket coming back from my cousins "OMG where having a baby, lets drink beer" party. As I left I layed two 'little' rubber lines with the TA and headed home. Man, it was a nice day. Cruising along on a country road.... passed a cop going the other direction.
Wasnt 1 mile later 2 police cars were right on my ass Pulled into my favorite party store and got the cool flashing lights. Police officer walked up and saw a 15 pack of Budwieser in the back. Information given, and then I started the drunk test's. I told him I started drinking at 4 o' clock, and it was now 8:30PM and I had 3-4 beers. Passed all four test's, and then got the breathalyzer.
Passed that with a WHOPPING 0.000
Police officer knocked my ticket down from 70/55 to a 60/55. I shook his hand, said thank you sir... and we went on our seperate ways
Just a nice lesson of why its cool to drink 3 beers and drive home. No DUI, just a little speeding ticket. Life is still good

Why not?
1. he dropped the speed down considerably
2. If Im not a asshole to him, its a good chance he wont even show if I do choose to fight it. The worst thing that can happen if I fight it is, he shows up, tells the magistrate he already dropped the speed and I have to pay.
But being polite and not blowing up on the police officer will help me in my quest of just paying a fine and not having any points.
Thats how I look at it.

Would have thanked him regardless of ticket or not.
If he wanted to feel froggy he could have taken you in and had a BAC done....

^--agreed.cop could have been a dick if he wanted to,especially after op admitted to 3-4 beers.most cops think 3-4 beers over 4.5 hours=d.u.i.

2016 Camaro SS - Summit- 2001 Trans Am WS6 - NBM
Well you can be proud of me too then I got stopped last weekend for having my parking lights and fog lights on without my headlights (I wasn't paying attention to the fact I didn't have my switch turned all the way, and I run my fog lights all the time ) I was polite, and my 3-yr-old who was in the back seat looooves cops for some reason. He flipped out and was talking to the guy. Cop asked if he wanted to see a big dog, he of course said yes. So the cop let me take him back to pet his canine while he wrote me a warning, and we talked about cars a bit. Shook his hand and he shook my son's hand, and all was good.
(PS, it may have helped a little that I went to high school with the cop )
