Product Description

Tips, quips, and anecdotes to help keep you traffic ticket-free.


From the Back Cover

Whoop! Whoop!  We all dread the sound of a siren and the sight of flashing blue lights behind our vehicles. Unfortunately, it’s almost inevitable you’ll be pulled over for speeding or running a red light at some point in your life. Is There a Problem, Officer? will make that moment less uncomfortable. And what better way to get the lowdown on when and why cops dish out tickets than from an actual cop?
 
Seattle police officer Steve Pomper tells it exactly how it is:
 
Don’t cry; you definitely won’t avoid a ticket that way.
Common courtesy will take you a lot further than speeding will.
If you deny fault, you can’t expect to receive a warning to correct the problem. 

Pomper has added helpful advice from police officers all over the United States, plus real-life cop-driver anecdotes and illustrative cartoons. Read this book and you’ll never again have to roll down your window and guiltily ask, Is There a Problem, Officer?

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book! Helpful and entertaining..., February 5, 2008
By Meghan E. Woering (Lawrenceville, GA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a great book. Not only do you get some practical tips to apply during traffic stops, but the book is smartly written as well. Officer Pomper blends helpful hints with funny anecdotes. I'd recommend this quick read to anyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars No more tickets for me!, April 28, 2008
Thank you, Steve, for writing this fabulous book! Not only will I be much more sympathetic to police officers whenever I see them, I'll also pay closer attention to the way I drive and I'll put myself in other drivers' shoes instead of instantly getting a severe case of road rage. You've enlightened me with words that really sunk in, you made me laugh multiple times, and you've made me understand how to properly communicate with police officers (not that I'll ever be pulled over again). Everyone should read this--especially teenagers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to read, and practical, too!, August 24, 2009
By K. Laprade (Holyoke, MA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a great primer for anyone who gets stopped by "the boys in blue." If you follow this advice you just might not get that dreaded "Sign here, three copies, press hard" slip of paper. I actually caught an interview with the author on one of my local radio stations, and he was easy to listen to and actually quite entertaining and funny. And Yankee Dave - if you just stop speeding you might not get stopped at all :-)
