I got pulled over for a speeding ticket and the cop never gave me a ticket?

Question

I was pulled over, and i was going a good 75-80 on the freeway as the cop pulls me over. I was a nerve-wreck and he told me that i was going 95 mph. I was freaking out.. He asked me if i had anything to drink, accused me of smoking pot, doing cocaine, and meth, etc. My friend was by me, he was interviewed separately so they can play this reverse psychology game. I have never done drugs in my life and id never drink and drive in my life. So he tells me to pull over to a parking lot and does the alcohol tests along with the breathalyser. He then tells me that I'm not in a great state of driving because i was so d**n nervous, so he said that i had to stay in the parking lot for 1 hour. And if i hadn't stayed, hed come to my house and arrest me. Which i thought was just pure bullshit. So all in all, he NEVER gave me a ticket, he gave me my license back and i never got a ticket at all. Am i safe? is there going to be charges on my license? any mail coming soon? i live in CA. AHH

Answer 1

If the officer did not present you with a citation for you to sign right at that moment, then you are in the clear.   If he was going to ticket you for anything, he would have had to do it at the time of the traffic stop.     Looks like you got off with just a verbal warning!   Lucky dog!!!   :)

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

oh please,get real.you just admitted to driving like a fool,you get pulled over,you DONT get cited,and yet you still whine??????what ARE you smoking???????????grow up,it could have cost you hundreds,if not more for a ticket at the speed you were going.sober up.

Answer 3

no you would have gotten the ticket right there. but he could have taken your licence for going 95mhp,,thats a misterminer.you were very lucky , he could have takin you to jail at same time,,thats wreckless driveing..dont chance your licence prevl,,again,,you were doing something very stupid,,the cop gave you a big break, so your the one thats bullshit...mr,lucky

Answer 4

If you ddin't get anything in writing about the stop, you are off the hook.  At least officially.

Answer 5

Basically, he figured he scared the daylights out of you with his stop so he didnt ticket you. He rightfully figured you were going to slow down now and he was satisfied.

Dont worry, but dont speed again. He wont be so nice if he stops you in the future.

Best of luck and I hope this is useful to you

Answer 6

thats so weird.

hah

i think your fine dont stess it

Answer 7

i am pretty sure you are in the clear

Answer 8

If he did not issue you a ticket, then forget it.  Are you sure it was a cop?

Answer 9

You're fine, it's done and over with.

Answer 10

Back when I was an MA back in the NAVY they saw you a nervous wreck they usually let you off.  They know we are in a state of war.  And, it is affecting everyone.  So cops are being a lot more lenient now than ever before.

Answer 11

Reminds me of Super Troopers...

Littering and...  Littering and...  Littering and...

Answer 12

Nopaperwork given to you no problem.  You got lucky as everything.  I have gotten a ticket 90% of every time I've been stopped.

Answer 13

do you have big b***s?

any way.... what he gave you was a break.

slow down.

if you did not sign anything... your free & clear.

Answer 14

You were very, very lucky. 95mph? Mm, really?  Anyway he obviously decided that the fright he gave you was as effective (or more so) than a ticket. Good practical policing.
