I've been pulled over for that, as well as having the same experience with a male friend driving. A small amount of "Really, Sir?" and "I'll take care of that right away, now that you have made me aware of it," has resulted in a verbal warning. A third friend who had the same experience was told to get it fixed and have the written warning (not ticket) signed by a Certified State Inspection Mechanic, otherwise it would become a ticket. As his father was a Certified State Inspection Mechanic, the paperwork was done before the bulb was replaced.
Did you hassle the cop in some way? Look like a Yankee, perhaps?
