We\u2019ve found that excuses are a way to avoid a citation. You can also request a warning.<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

More than one-third (36%) of drivers said they\u2019ve requested a warning. Nearly half of those drivers said they were successful asking for a warning — and didn\u2019t offer an excuse.<\/p>

Forty-eight percent said they requested a warning without giving an excuse and got out of a speeding ticket. That\u2019s up from 41% in both 2019 and 2020 surveys.<\/p>

That tack didn\u2019t work for everyone though. Twenty-nine percent said they asked for a warning without an excuse and still got a ticket.<\/p>

Also, 12% said they requested a warning, gave an excuse and got out of a ticket and 11% requested a warning, provided an excuse and still got a ticket.<\/p>

Men are more likely than women to request a warning when pulled over for speeding. Fifty-two percent of men said they asked for a warning, compared to just 20% of women.<\/p>

Men are also more likely to get a warning if they request one. More than half of men said they asked for a warning without an excuse and got out of a ticket. Only 36% of women were successful.<\/p>

Women were also less successful than men if they gave an excuse and requested a warning. Twenty-one percent of women said they still got a ticket when they offered an excuse and requested a warning. Only 7% of men said the same.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

About half of drivers say they\u2019ve either never been pulled over for speeding or haven\u2019t in about 10 years. Around one-third of drivers say they\u2019ve been pulled over within the past year.<\/p>

Fifty-five percent of drivers who\u2019ve been pulled over in the past 10 years only got stopped once in that time. Thirty-four percent said two or three times.<\/p>

Women are much more likely to say they\u2019ve never been pulled over than men. Forty-two percent of women say they\u2019ve never been stopped for speeding, compared to just 15% of men. Those are similar results to the 2020 survey.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Though just about everyone speeds, most say they don\u2019t drive that much over the limit.<\/p>

Seventy-nine percent of drivers say they drive within 10 mph of the speed limit — though men were more apt to say they floor it at times.<\/p>
