[Spoken English] What to say if you are pulled over?
Imagine I am pulled over for running red light,and hope the officer can forgive me and let go without trouble, what should I say ? Can I say "I am sorry, can you do me a favor" something like that?
P.S : Do you have a word meaning the officer "forgive you and let you go without trouble"
Re: [Spoken English] What to say if you are pulled over?
One thing it is unwise to say if you have done something illegal or stupid is "Can you do me a favour" - the police are not in the business of doing wrongdoers favours [usually]
