[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I received a ticket for taking a right turn into a fancy neighborhood that has prevented people from entering it by putting up signs that say "No right turns" into it from 7-9:30 am. Well, I did take the turn during those hours and got a ticket. (I know this shouldn't matter but I must add that half my neighborhood takes this turn because it isn't a safety issue--just the neighborhood (that I live across from) wanting to prevent cars from going through during rush hour.) Anyways, I have chosen to go to court with hope that I can pay the fine but not get the 1 point associated with the ticket. I chose the "in between" route (choosing to go to trial but without police officer/attorney there as I've already admitted guilt) and will need to give an explanation to the judge.

Besides the fact that half my neighborhood regularly takes this right turn (should I even say this?), the only additional comment I have is that the police officer had no idea what she was doing--let four people go by while she was figuring out my ticket, didn't know whether there were points involved in the citation.

Anyways, what do I say to the judge (if anything) other than "I'm sorry I did it and I won't take the right turn during those hours again."[/quote]

Gosh, the sign is stupid, everyone does it, and the cop doesn't know what he's doing.  You should tell them that exactly, word for word.  You'll soon be posting to ask whether bicycles can make that fancy right turn.[/quote]
