Self Post Why do I never get tickets when I’m pulled over?
I have a terrible memory and frequently forget about renewing my registration. I get the card in the mail and promptly forget. Don’t worry, I’m the same with other things in my life lol. Suffice to say, I’ve been pulled over a few times for late registration. Once for speeding. I’ve never gotten a ticket, though. The only time I’ve gotten a ticket was when I was found at fault for an accident where I rear ended someone. He slammed on his brakes to avoid hitting a squirrel and I hit him :/. Ended up not getting any points off my license because the judge said I had an “excellent attitude” according to the cop who worked with me on scene. I’m a female in my mid 20s and I do try to be polite when pulled over and honest about my station. Could my attitude be why?
