The fastest way to irrate a Police Officer is to sound like you know your Rights. They will find something to nail you.

Back when I was 19 or so I worked a second shift. I was driving home from work up thru Troy. As I crossed a mile road, I saw a cop swing out behind me. Next mile another two cop cars joined in behind me. A short while later they light me up and I'm surrounded by 5 squads. They all have their weapons out pointed at me. They ask me to get out of the car. Then they ask me to open the trunk, I'm thinking that I have a cooler full of beer, and what are my rights. One cop looked straight at me and said, "Don't be stupid".  I opened the trunk and 30 seconds later I'm alone with one cop. They did not care about the cooler, someone with a car like mine had just robed a party store. Before the last cop sped away, he asked, "Isn't it good to know we are doing our job?"

This is a robbery give me  your wallet = this is shakedown give me identification.

Walter, I think that you and the various lawyers who are addressing these traffic stop situations should consider the problems that arise with newer cars where there are no physical keys that fit in the ignition.  My car is electric, but maybe even some newer cars with engines have also converted to electronic “key fobs”.   In these cases everything changes.   If you exit your car when asked and the “key” is still in your pocket and you have locked the door, it really isn’t locked.  As long as you are near the door and if the cop or anyone else standing near the car pulls on the door handle, it will open.  It’s for this reason that I carry a Faraday pouch, which blocks all RF signals, to slip my keyfob into once I’m outside and the car is locked.

If you have out of state license on your car, the cop knows he holds all the power. He will assume you’re not coming back to challenge him in court several months later.

Funny how many people get off on declaring "this is AI."  First of all - no sh!t, Sherlock! It's AI, what's your point? Second, it doesn't make the information being presented any less valuable. It's up to you to vet any information you take in, and a live person can be just as wrong as our talking head here.

It may be your “right” to not identify yourself, but essentially you’re asking for a night in jail & perhaps a long, expensive court case LE has immunity.

Love these A.I. lawyers man

I don't just give my I.D. up when they ask! I ask do you expect me of commiting a crime 🫆 officer. Show me your I.D. officer. 😅

Key out doesn't work anymore with most modern cars :/

It's a freaking shame that they have no respect for their Oath of Office!  Pathetic!

What if your car has keyless ignition.?

To quote you, Walter, you said the cop asked “DO YOU MIND IF I SEARCH YOUR CAR?”.  Then you suggested this answer: “NO, I DON’T CONSENT ….”.   But shouldn’t the answer be, “YES OFFICER, I DO MIND.  I DON’T CONSENT TO ANY SEARCHES!”

There's one thing Walter is failing to mention to his viewers.. You only have Rights if you can afford them !!!
Now we don't know if Walter is leaving this part out by accident or if he is purposely leaving out this detail .Walter is not a lawyer So he can't take your case for free..And lawyers can be very expensive and if you can afford one well..Good for you ..But  most people will be stuck with an overworked ,Underfunded public defender that will promise to get you the best plea deal he can possibly get ..See it's easy for Walter to talk a good game but Walter won't be the one doing the time and paying the fines ...It's going to be the people  that listened to Walter !!! You can always hope Walter will pay your attorney fees !!!???

21:13 It's actually *not* wise to say, "No" if the officer asks if you mind if he takes a look inside your vehicle, because he might claim that he'd "innocently" thought you meant you didn't mind, not that you were telling him no to searching.  Instead, just say, I DO NOT CONSENT TO ANY SEARCHES.

1. there is NO Law that States you must Roll your window down 2. You do NOT have to hand the pig your documents , you ONLY have to display them in the window. 3. you can tell the pig to ' F " off . Free speech  .4 Here is how to beat any traffic ticket without going to court. I did this with 4 tickets .
There is a better way to beat ANY Traffic Ticket WITHOUT going to Court.
Within 72 hrs of getting ticket, send the ticket to the “Court Clerk” with a “Notice” letter that says this.

Dear Clerk of Court
(or Whomever is the designated Receiver) I am returning this Ticket Receipt. There has been a MISTAKE. I was not given the original wet-ink signature copy by the patrolman and
have nothing to base payment on as a result. Please remit the wet-ink signature copy at your earliest
convenience.

Sincerely , ________________  

Do NOT fill out the ticket Or write anything on the ticket copy.
95% of the time you will not hear back from the court. The reason is the Town Monetized the ticket and
made a Bond from it. They don’t have the original. And by law,  ( Fair Debt Collection Practices Act )
you must have the original in order to pay. So what usually happens is you go to court a few weeks later and then the judge fines you guilty and you pay the fine. So the Town is double dipping.
Now if you do hear back from the town asking you to come into court than send another letter like this.

2ND  NOTICE
                     Notice to Agent is Notice to Principal , Notice to Principal is Notice to Agent

Town Court
123 ( Street name )
city , state , zip

Dear Clerk of Court
(or Whomever is the designated Receiver)
I am returning this ticket Receipt. There has been a MISTAKE. I was not given the original wet-ink signature copy by the patrolman and have nothing to base payment on as a result. Please remit the original wet ink signature copy at your earliest
convenience.

I DO NOT CONSENT TO ANY PROCEEDINGS.
I did NOT make ANY Pleadings by mail.
I have NO Contract with the court.
Please follow Due process of the law. The court Clerk CAN be held  Accountable for Failure to do their
Fiduciary Duty.   Research “ ( Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ) “.  
Please remit the original wet – Ink signature copy at your earliest
convenience. Send it to me by certified mail ,return receipt requested.

I did this with 4 tickets from the same town in NY . 2 tickets in 2020 and 2 in 2022
I got pulled over by the same cop and he remembered me. The first 2 tickets were no insurance and switched plates. This was during Covid and DMV was not open and could not get tags. The 2022 tickets were no valid inspection and false inspection sticker. I was taking the car to the junk yard.
But anyways I do not condone breaking traffic laws like speeding , running red-lights , stopped signs
ect….   I learned this info from a Female Judge in Alaska .


This is how to fight back Share this info with everyone. How to beat any traffic ticket WITHOUT going to court. I have done this myself with 4 tickets.
The traffic system was set up a long time ago and was done in such a way to extort money from people. As time went on they added more statutes , codes, and  regulations to extort more money for petty non crimes like you didn't turn on your blinker or tag light out.  We need to force congress to repeal these petty non - crimes from traffic codes and not allow cops to pull people over for them. We would be much more free people if we ALL got together and did this.


If Everyone did this then the towns and courts would loose a lot of money and go out of business. This is one way to take back America from the corrupt police and towns and court system that is rigged against the citizen. Don't let them extort money from you ever again.

we need to force congress to repeal these petty non - crimes from traffic codes and not allow cops to pull people over for them.

In Ohio they went a step further if they even find the keys on you or
In your car you have control of the motor vehicle and could operate it at any time

Good

Call DMV in about the new cars who don't have keys in the ignition?

Push to start??
