It can seem to work though. My brother-in-law tells stories about seeing his friends get out of tickets with their hand written IDs. To me those stories sound like cops stopping a car full of drunken probably armed rednecks in the middle of nowhere - cops who just want to go home alive.
Yeah, I’m sure there’s a lazy cop factor. But, if it actually makes it to a court, I think there’s a limit on how far it will go. I’m sure sometimes a judge will just give up because it’s not worth the hassle for something that’s a small dollar fine. But, other times the judge will probably get mad and throw the book at them for wasting his/her time.
