It depends on what jurisdiction you are going to work in. Some states require stringent state certified training other states leave the training requirements entirely up to the department.

How do you fight a tailgating ticket?

Instead of paying the ticket, you need to show up for the court hearing. It will not be easy to win the case if the police officer shows up for court.


Can an off duty police officer who saw you driving recklessly give you a ticket well after the fact and after your vehicle is off and you are standing outside it in Missouri?

As a rule, police officers do not report civil violations after the fact or that they themselves did not witness when it relates to traffic violations (because it would be hearsay) if a police officer is trying to write up a ticket for an action on the previous day without proof through a radar instrument and he was off duty--THIS would be a great case to fight. Yes. If the officer can identify the car and driver then the citation is no different than any other citation. In most cases the officer has up to a year after the event to issue a citation. The fact that the officer felt the need to act while off duty might be seen as indication of exactly how egregious the violation was, because officers routinely ignore events while off duty. Something made this especially bad.


If a police patrol car police randomly stops in back of you do they automatically run your plates or do they only stop you if you have a driving violation?

In many jurisdictions, police enter most plates they stop in front of through the data base, but unless you have a warrant on the vehicle, they still need probable cause to pull you over. Better answer is it depends. A Police Officer has discretion and may or may not run your plate. You may have a warrant on the vehicle or a invalid driving status. Those two reasons are enough to stop the vehicle. Furthermore, Probable Cause is not necessary to stop a vehicle. The level needed is Articulable Suspicion and is a lower degree of certainty than Probable Cause.
