Obviously, it\u2019s a nerve-racking experience that probably rates right up there with a trip to the dentist. It is possible, though, to limit the unpleasantness to a minimum if you keep a few pointers in mind. Here what to do if you are stopped by the police:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>As soon as it is safe to do so, immediately steer over as far as possible to the right-hand curb or shoulder of the road. Be sure to keep clear of intersections.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remain stopped and wait inside your vehicle until or unless the officer directs you to do otherwise.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keep your hands in plain sight.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Turn on the interior light if it is dark outside.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Comply with directions given by the officer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Upon request, show your license, registration and proof of insurance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Answer questions and communicate honestly and politely. Ask for an explanation if there\u2019s something that is not clear.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If a citation is issued, calmly accept it. Keep in mind that acceptance is not an admission of guilt. You will be afforded the opportunity to contest the citation in court.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">MOTORISTS CAN BE STOPPED FOR A NUMBER OF REASONS SUCH AS:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.theticketclinic.com\/es\/we-fight-traffic-tickets\/\">Traffic Violations<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reasonable supposition of criminal activity based on observation, available information from other police officers, police radio transmissions or a witness.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Outstanding warrants.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Minor infractions such as a broken taillight, driving after dark without headlights, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">WHAT TO DO IF YOU RECEIVE A TRAFFIC TICKET:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Call THE TICKET CLINIC for a free consultation, or hire us online.
