Knock on wood, I've gotten many pulled over many times (usually no more than 3 a year though) and I've had:

- verbal or written warnings
- tickets for other than what I actually did (lesser offenses)
- speeding tickets reduced by 10 or more mph/$100 or more

My most recent experience:

There is a sort-of back road near where I work. I did a quick pull while datalogging, then stopped at the redlight at the end of the road. I'm sitting there looking at the datalog, until the light turns green. I look up and there's a police car right next to my door (pointed at me) and as soon as I take off he turns on the lights and tells me to pull over, in the middle of an intersection. I pull over on the side of the road after I get through the intersection. He comes up visibly "on fire".

He asks me where I'm headed so fast. I tell him I'm just headed to taco bell from work to grab some lunch, then heading right back. He tells me that I tried to turn "his" road into a race track and now I have to deal with him. I tell him I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't have punched it there, I just got the itch after being shut in the office for so long. Lots of "yes/no sir" later...

He came back with an exhaust ticket.
