I got pulled over for speeding last night 73 in a 55. The cop was cool and gave me a written warning. My question is: Next time I get pulled over will the cop know I got that warning? And if so how long will that be on my record?

If it was a written warning, I would probably say that ya it'll be on your record next time you get pulled over. Don't know how long it would stay on there though.
On a side note - I got pulled over for running a red light - or should I say trying to beat a red light. Cop gave me warning as well - first time I've ever been let off. Must be the spring weather or something.

Re: Got off with a warning, but.... (pgoutsos)
I've been pretty lucky when it comes to cops. I've been pulled over about 10 times for speeding, and I've only had three tickets, and now a written warning.
Here's a couple tips for when you get pulled over:
1. Turn off your radio.
2. Have your license and proof of insurance in your hand.
3. KEEP YOUR HANDS ON THE WHEEL.
4. Be extra respectful. "Yes Sir" "No Sir"
5. Be honest. You both know why you got pulled over, just admit it.

I disagree with only one part of your suggestions junky. I say wait until they get to your car to get your license and insurance out. That way, they don't see you fidgeting around trying to pull it all out and wonder if you are hiding something. Both hands on the wheel, be respectful, and admit your mistake is always a good idea though.

Yeah, I work with a bunch of them. But unless I am in an accident, become disabled, or need to file bankruptcy, they aren't much help to me. Besides, they don't drive around with me, so they aren't there to help when I need it anyway.

They have gotten me out of a couple tickets after the fact though. (through friends of their's who handle traffic tickets)

to add to the tips:
Take off sunglasses, they want to see your eyes.
Also TELL them where the license and reg. is. "It's in my back pocket, lemme get it for you sir/ma'am"

Yeah, we all got taken out of Jack's Volvo and patted down as a result of just such an instance. We were passing a CD case and apparently it looked WAY too much like guns or drugs to not line us up on the side of the road.
BTW- This all happened not more than 100 yards from Holly's parents house. That would have been a good one to have to explain had they driven by.

You keep getting uppity like that and I'll do a cavity search and plant my "evidence" on you

This is so true I have been pulled over somewhere between 10 and 12 times in the past 2 years for random things and have gotten only warnings.
Along with this things I also turn my hat around so its forward.
