Getting out of a ticket

[BABHUMV]

Here is a trick I learned. When and if the fine finalizes, overpay it by 5 dollars. When they send you a refund, do not cash the refund check. Therefore the item never clears their books and the ticket does not get recorded.

I tried it in CA once, still haven't seen the ticket on my record .

Good luck, sounds like the cop was just having a bad day.
