My $.02,
Traffic court, you are guilty, period. No such thing as "innocent until...." Garbage in traffic court. The judge thought he would be on the Supreme Court by now, but he is seeing about 300 complete lying idiots per day. You have 2 seconds to say your story, and if it is bs like the ticket says red when my car is orange, he will cut you off and not be happy. Cops show up. Cops love court days, they basically get a day off. Your only saving grace is most judges in Cal are very liberal, so they think fines are too high, and after you are found guilty the fine might, might be less. Usually you can't do school if you go to court. Best bet if you can is pay the fine and go to school. No insurance point with school. First ticket? |

tell the judge you were with your crazy girlfriend and she yanked the steering wheel causing you to cross the double yellow lines but you learned from my mistakes because you are single now

CVC 21460.
(a) If double parallel solid yellow lines are in place, a person driving a vehicle shall not drive to the left of the lines, except as permitted in this section. (b) If double parallel solid white lines are in place, a person driving a vehicle shall not cross any part of those double solid white lines, except as permitted in this section or Section 21655.8. (c) If the double parallel lines, one of which is broken, are in place, a person driving a vehicle shall not drive to the left of the lines, except as follows: (1) If the driver is on the side of the roadway in which the broken line is in place, the driver may cross over the double lines or drive to the left of the double lines when overtaking or passing other vehicles. (2) As provided in Section 21460.5. (d) The markings as specified in subdivision (a), (b), or (c) do not prohibit a driver from crossing the marking if (1) turning to the left at an intersection or into or out of a driveway or private road, or (2) making a U-turn under the rules governing that turn, and the markings shall be disregarded when authorized signs have been erected designating offcenter traffic lanes as permitted pursuant to Section 21657. (e) Raised pavement markers may be used to simulate painted lines described in this section if the markers are placed in accordance with standards established by the Department of Transportation. Your best bet is to argue you didn't actually break the law... |

Also, while getting the tix, ask the officer for the county seat. If the officer writes his ticket for the local court house, he "might" miss your court date for his other tix at the closer court house. Once you get your court date in the mail, call the court house and request for an extension. Good luck!
