I think, having done this a few times, the line should be "minor traffic ticket," not "small talk." You can get out of a ticket (or get it downgraded to a warning) by being nice to the officer, and that is a much better outcome than you can get by attempting to bring in a lawyer or behave as though you are going to fight legally. Many of these kinds of warrants are closer to the "minor traffic ticket" side than anything else. The trouble is that you may want a lawyer to tell you that.
