Also, when you go to court, it'll hurt your case, and many Judges will assess you higher court costs if they hear you were nasty with the cop.

(My partner's a certified cop in TN, PA, and FL, and this all came from him in response to your question).

thanks for the informative post...here where i live the cops always do traffic stops with a partner so they are never alone so i guess i couldn't have said "fuck off" or something like that. he did ticket me for three different things, the total ticket cost came out to $500 dollars and i got pulled over for no reason. he said i turned on my signal light after i made the turn but i had my signal light on way before the turn, i figured there was no use arguing with him because it was my word against his....i have a feeling he was having a bad day and just wanted to be a prick....especially because i have a pretty nice car...
