How to get out of a speeding ticket

I was driving to work about a week ago and pass a cop. He flashes his lights, turns around and pulls me over. He walks up and asks me that stupid question they always ask: "Do you know why I pulled you over?"

I basically ignored the question and just handed him my license, registration and insurance card. "Here you go, sir."

"I clocked you going 55 in a 40 back there."

"40? I thought it was 45, sir."

"Nope 40. Have you received any speeding tickets in the past year."

"Yes, sir. One."

"OK."

He walks back to his car. After about 5 minutes, he comes back to my car.

"Mr. Moyer. I see you have 3 speeding tickets since 2001. I can see just giving you speeding tickets isn't doing anything to slow you down. There just not having any effect on you."

At this time, my heart starts pounding and I'm thinking "He can't just take my license away!"

"So, Mr. Moyer, since tickets aren't making any difference I'm just giving you a warning and asking you to PLEASE SLOW DOWN."

So the key to not getting a ticket? Make sure you already have a bunch on your record.
