Let's face it, getting pulled over sucks! But recently Thrilist.com spoke with two cops recently came up with a list of ways to get out of a ticket if you’re pulled over.

Some we’d seen some before, like don’t argue, and know where your registration is.  But here are a few you might not think about.

  1. Put your turn signal on ASAP and pull over as soon as you can. It's respectful!
  2. Kiss up to them BEFORE they leave your car to run your information. That's usually when they decide whether or not to give you a ticket. And once they write one, they can't take it back.
  3. Don't be short with them, but don't tell a very detailed story either. Quick and to the point! No one word answers.
  4. Try to make them laugh. Which sounds a little risky, but apparently it works. We're assuming a bad joke has the opposite effect though. So don't force it.
  5. Mentioning that you know a cop DOES work sometimes. So if you can work it into the conversation, go for it.
