You are wrong. The Fifth Amendment states that a person shall not be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself.
Whointhewhaaaa
Doesn't the miranda statement say something along the lines of anything you say can be used in a court of law?
"Miranda warnings" are a prophylactic rule adopted by SCOTUS to protect the Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination.

You can't invoke the 5th unless you're testifying under oath.
you can’t be compelled to give any stmts or information against your will
chiapOpDog
Yes you can it is called a subpoena. The court can actually force you to do many things against your will.
Jagernot
no, a subpoena just forces you to show up. You can plead the 5th till you're blue in the face once you're there.
Only if it can incriminate yourself. Subpoena can force you to testify. Failing to can put you in contempt of court
Which would be the right to silence. 5th precludes you from being a witness against yourself during a trial.
Right to silence came from Miranda v AZ which core argument was 5A
Right to Silence was born of Bram v. United States - https://www.lexisnexis.com/community/casebrief/p/casebrief-bram-v-united-states

Just keep in mind that you can at least be polite and honest enough to get out of a speeding ticket. If all you say is “am I being detained
schizznatt
I was in an Uber the other night with a black dude driving, and he got pulled over for running a red light (it was a confusing no right turn
situation). The cop also claimed he ran a stop sign before that (I didn’t see). Anyways, I was like uh oh. The black dude was super friendly
and polite, trying to get out of it. Cop takes his license and takes foreeever to come back. At this point the driver was pissed, so he says
look man, there was no reason for you to take so long, so just give me the ticket so I can leave. And I was thinking shiiiiit, it’s about to
go down. And then the cop just says, ‘fine, forget it. Just go.’ And no ticket! The driver and I both were shocked lol
SupraLove
100% agree. What they’re talking about holds true for situations that aren’t minor traffic law infractions.
or not” though, and you can bet they’ll just give you the ticket. If you’re being suspected of doing something wrong though, by all means
take the advice. Just remember that shutting up isn’t always the best option, especially if it was just a mistake ??♂️

BitchesLoveBoba
The best advice i've ever got (that i've never had to use) for getting out of a ticket is to have fake, heated argument with your passenger.

No they won't. And if they do that is bad advice. They will tell you never talk to the police when your being questioned.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-7o9xYp7eE "I will never talk to any police officer under any circumstances"
Lol he actually amends that in his book. His advice is NOT for traffic stops FYI its when your being questioned or detained.
Be polite. Ask questions to get them to the point. Getting good at the question game helps. "What seems to be the problem officer" 1/2
"oh is my headlight out?" "Was that sign a 30mph?" "Can I take my hands off the steering wheel to grab my license"
"Any lawyer worth his salt will tell the suspect, in no uncertain terms, to make no statement to the police under any circumstances"
Justice Robert H. Jackson https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_H._Jackson
BlindGardener
I mean the most recent thing I've said to a police officer is "This is my house." They were asking what I was doing in my yard.
The officer sort of stared at my for a while, and I kept laying in my yard, and finally the officer walked away.
Exactly that's the right approach. Police came to my door about a double homicide a few weeks ago. I just said I didn't see anything.
