>>28449888 (OP)first time I got pulled over I had a tail light out as a kid, swapped the fuse with the cop there and it came back on (in retrospect this was before I knew swapping fuses didn't actually fix anything but it stayed lit as long as I had that car so whatever).
once license plate was expired and the new tag was literally in my mailbox when I got home, luckily he was able to run the plate and see it was already renewed in the system
Those are the good ones, the rest were cop hustles like rolling a stop sign at 10 feet per hour instead of parking the car, getting out, walking a lap around around it, firing off a flare, and then driving away
