Traffic police officers, doing their job, often do not act too honestly. They hide around the corner with houses or trees, “do not notice” difficult situations on the road, because of which they had to break the rules, etc. But you can solve all the problems without paying a fine, if you behave correctly with them.
Instructions
Step 1
If your car is stopped by a traffic police officer, do not jump out of the driver's seat and run towards him. Fussiness will show the law enforcement officer that you are not confident in yourself, which means that you have something to be fined for. He will begin to carefully check the documents, ask to open the trunk (although he has no right to do so without a search warrant), will check the engine numbers to see if the car is stolen, etc. Most likely, he will not find anything illegal, but the check will take a huge amount of time. You will be late for work, airport, etc. Therefore, when you are asked to snuggle to the side of the road, do this, and calmly wait in the car for the traffic police officer to come up to you and introduce himself. Pass documents for verification through an open window.
Step 2
In a conversation with a traffic police officer, do not get annoyed. Speak in an even, confident voice. Very often, if law enforcement officers see that you are not nervous, they understand that they will have to prove your offense for a long time. Which, most likely, did not exist. Traffic police officers prefer to release such drivers after checking their rights, and to catch more nervous and cowardly ones, on whom any offense can be blamed.
Step 3
Know your rights. Remember that a traffic police officer does not have the right to search your trunk, glove compartment, as well as personal belongings - bags in the cabin, etc. He can only ask you to show something, for example, a first aid kit, forcing you to open the trunk in this way. But there is a trick here too. Say that when you left the garage, there was a first aid kit in the trunk, you personally checked it. Therefore, let the law enforcement officer prove her absence, you are sure that she is in the car. Usually, if a traffic police officer sees that you know your rights, he will stop pestering you with requests, let you go and will catch more compliant drivers.
Step 4
Learn the current traffic rules. Very often, traffic police officers catch drivers that they are not aware of the new rules. Don't let this happen. Every year, study the amendments to the main collection, or rather, carry the rules with you in order to prove your case to the inspector not on your fingers, but with the help of a regulatory document.
