The only time I recently got out of a ticket working the last ten years was also the only time that I openly argued with an officer. He got mad and stomped back to his bike and ride away. I didn't realize that he left my id and insurance and was waiting for him to give me a ticket when I realized that he'd ridden off. This all happened with my not-very-white wife sifting in the passenger seat who immediately told me this only happened because I was white, and maintains that to this day. She's probably right, but I wish it would happen more often.
