When in high school i was pulled over for speeding around 0200.

Officer said - "Is there anything illegal inside the car?"

my Passenger leans over to look out the drivers side window and replied - "Nothing, other than the bale of weed in the trunk."

Needless to say the officer wasn't too concerned about my speeding anymore, and i had to pick up my buddy at the police station a few hours later.

"[Even if there would be] few tears shed if and when the Second Amendment is held to guarantee nothing more than the state National Guard, this would simply show that the Founders were right when they feared that some future generation might wish to abandon liberties that they considered essential, and so sought to protect those liberties in a Bill of Rights. We may tolerate the abridgement of property rights and the elimination of a right to bear arms; but we should not pretend that these are not reductions of rights." -- Justice Scalia 1998

This may not fit here, but when I was a cop I used to call my badge an A$$ Hole magnet.

"You clocked me doing 95? Damn, I thought I was doing at least 110."

"Do you smell bacon? Suuueeey, Suuueeey!"

"So you're that a$$hole who was tailgating me! I thought you just wanted to race."

"Why don't you go catch a real crook?"

"There's $5 in it for you if you just let me go." (I think Janikowski invented this one)

"Aww, man, I knew shouldn't have borrowed my neighbors car without asking."

One friend of mine got pulled over for doing 53 in a 35 - he had to bite his tongue to keep from saying "Honest officer, I'm dyslexic."

Favorite question I've been asked by an officer who pulled me over - I had a "Georgia Tech" sticker across the back window, a big "GT" parking decal, and my book bag beside me with Ga. Tech on the front in plain sight (I was on my way to take a final). The officer walks up to my door, looks everything over, and says "You go to Ga. Tech?" Great job, Sherlock! It turned out we went to high school together - no ticket even though he pulled me over because I nearly ran him off the road (hey, I was exhausted, the curve snuck up on me).
 
Oahu, Hawaii 1964/65 on a road east of Schofield Barracks, around 0500 (5 AM for you National Guard types) Sunday morning, driving a 1962 Corvette at a speed of 100mph +...I top this rise in the road and meet a Police car coming in the other direction....as I blew by him I saw the blue lights come on so I slowed er down pulled over to the side and stopped to wait for him, when he topped the rise behind me he almost lost it when he saw that I was stopped. The Officer walked up to my car and the exchange went something like this:
Officer: Man, what in the hell do you thing you're doing?
Me: I'm blowing the soot out of this thing.
Officer: you're WHAT?
ME: I come out here about once a month and blow the soot out of my engine.
Officer: You do this every Month?
Me: Yes Sir.
Looooong pause........
Officer: You always come out here to blow er out this early?
Me: Yes Sir.
Another Loooooong pause
Officer: OK...you be careful...ya hear?
Me: Yes Sir.
Officer gets in his patrol car does a U turn and leaves while I sit in my car with my chin hanging down to my lap.
Man, what a Cool understanding cop. :)

No real talk on this one but funny as h**l I guess,tho not at the time.
A friend stopped buy with a motercyvle he just bought and asked me if I wanted to try it out.Climed on and hit the throttle.Went into a 55 s curve at 70 and meet a state trooper half way through it.Cranked it and went around the second curve at 100+ then slacked down.Checked mirror and sure as heck ther where light going back of me about a mile.Pulled over and got my license out and was waiting when he stopped.He opened the pass door,I climed in,handed him my license,he pointed to the radar which said 70 and wrote out the ticket.No words spoken as yet.He handed me my ticket and I started to clime out and he said the only words spoken
"by the way you looked good laying it into that curve"Cost me 35.00.LOng ago.

Easter break 1968 and I'm with my cousin at my parent's house near D.C. We're home from college and decide to drive out to the main drag and buy something to read. Coming out of the local store, a dive near the high school, with a Playboy rolled up in a brown bag, there are two scruffy looking clowns with 3-day beards, leather coats and driving an old Ford with three of the four stacked headlights working. We drive off and they follow. I crank up the tape deck and drive slowly through the narrow residential streets back to my folks' house w/ these yo-yos tailgating me. About the time we get in front of the house, they hit the siren, jump out, pull guns, demand i.d. and want to know why I didn't pull over. I turned the stereo back on and said "What?" By the time he said why again the neighborhood children were crowding him going "John, John." I told the guy look, we go to school in the mountains and are always getting hassled by REDNECKS!! They thought we were underage and had wine and just walked away. My dad, the former Va. Trooper, called the station and raised flipping heck. I've since learned never to call a redneck with a gun pointed at me a redneck. John

Here's a non-moving violation:
Bear in mind that I live in a small town, in a swamp with only two bridges out.
My brotherhad borrowed my father's car, which he parked by the local pool and went inside. When he came out the car wouldn't start so he caught a ride home with a friend. Hours later the local police called my father, asking him to come down to where the car was sitting in the parking lot. It seems there was a bank robbery and the local constabulary believed that the robbers had used his car as a getaway vehicle and left it outside the pool for some unknown reason rather than driving out of town.
My father walked up to the car and the two officers and asked how long ago the crime had taken place.
Only about 20 minutes ago, they replied.
He popped the hood, put his hand on the engive and said, feel this. Is it warm? This thing hasn't moved in the last eight hours and isn't likely to either until I fix it. Then he offered them the keys so they could try to start it.
They declined and left grumbling.

You gotta be prepared to back this one up...

Got pulled over on I-75 in Kentucky in my old VW bus...

Going uphill.

For speeding.

The cop walked up, we did the license thing, and he told me what he was hassling me for. I started laughing, and couldn't stop... I think he figured out why when I was holding out the keys, and choking out "Here - you try it - if you can get it over 55 this far up the hill, it's yours!"
 
Not quite the same thing, but an old girl friend got at ticket for 75 in her old VW. She gets to court and protests the ticket and the fact that the speed was checked with a radar gun.
The judge said that the ticket would stand. She replied Your Honor here are the keys to my car, if you can get the thing to go 75 I will gladly pay the ticket. Or if you will ride with me I will hold the pedal to the floor for as long as you say and if it gets up to 75 I will gladly pay the fine.
The judge looked at her for a moment and then dismissed the ticket.
