I like the highway police today

I'd suggest that the following general rules of thumb couldn't do your chances any harm:

1) IF you're going to stop, do it straight away and as safely as possible.
2) Dismount.
3) Helmet and sunnies off. Eye contact is very important.
4) Be polite. You've probably broken the law and in the wrong, as such you want to minimise the risk of pi$$ing the officer off.
5) Don't bullshit, they've heard it all before.
6) Be chatty, but don't crawl. Nobody likes a brown noser.
7) Have your documents to hand.


Treat others as you;d like to be treated youself and I guess your chances of being given a break must at least be increased.

Yup, all of the above worked for me

You don't know what you're missing. Buy some Regaine and massage it into the required area...

Do not apply this to cops of the female persuasion, or at least not the ones in the Waikato/BoP area. They are there to write tickets, not discuss the situation or use discretion.
(112 K, good road, good weather, no traffic and Ms Cop was writing the ticket before she even opened her mouth. )
