Step 1
The first step is to avoid speeding if you are the only car that is on the road. When there are large numbers of cars on the road there is less chance you will get a speeding ticket because the police have more potential targets. However, if you are the only car on the road, and the police officer doing the radar patrol only has one target, then you are much more likely to get a speeding ticket if you are going too fast.

Step 2
The second step is to not to drive in the far left lane. The far left lane is where people who are driving the fastest will be traveling, and so this is where the police will be targeting their laser gun. If you are driving too fast in the far left lane you have a higher chance of getting a speeding ticket, so stay in one of the middle or right lanes.

Step 3
The third step is to stay within 5 miles and hour of the traffic that is traveling around you. If you have a number of cars all traveling at relatively the same speed then the chances of you getting a speeding ticket are decreased. When you are in a pack of cars try to stay just about even with everyone, if you stand out from 6 other cars as obviously going faster then you have a much greater chance of getting a speeding ticket.

Step 4
The fourth step is to avoid tailgating people or change lanes without using your signals. If a police officer sees you engaging in these behaviors they are much more likely to point that laser at you and by drawing attention to yourself you have a greater chance of getting a speeding ticket.

Step 5
The fifth step is to invest in a radar detector. A quality radar detector will alert you that the police have speed traps ahead of you so that you can slow down before you ever reach them. This will save you a lot of money in insurance costs from avoiding that speeding ticket that you might have gotten. If you avoid one speeding ticket every 3 years the radar detector has more than paid for itself.
