The police can be annoying, right? Who cares, they can't catch you in Need for Speed: Carbon. When "busted" appears on the screen, simply turn off the Wii. That way nothing will be saved, and you can continue playing as usual. Just be careful, if autosave is off, you might have to redo a few races. Don't use this trick too often, or your Wii might break down!
Personal tip:
How can I make the most of my nitro in Need for Speed: Carbon?

In some cars in Need for Speed: Carbon, you have access to a certain amount of nitrous that refills slowly after being used. You need to use this nitrous wisely. For example, if you crash and as a result your speed decreases by 100 km/h, you should use your nitrous to speed up again. This way, you make optimal use of your nitrous, leading to better results in the end. So, don't use it when you're already going 200 km/h.

Help!! You've just had an accident with your car and suddenly find yourself facing the wrong way! Turning around is too slow.
No worries.
Just reverse a bit until you've gained some speed and then steer. You'll naturally end up facing the right way. (The handbrake can also be helpful at times).
Personal tip:
How can I drift and leave tracks in Need for Speed: Carbon?

If you hold down both the forward and backward buttons at the same time, you can drift in Need for Speed: Carbon. When you start steering, you can make circles and leave tracks behind. (They will disappear after a while).
Just a fun little trick to try when you're bored or something.
