Well the day was going good boss man have me a 10% raise and he's giving me his 07' Nissan Murano as a bonus so I was having a great day!! Until 10 minutes ago when I just got pulled over and ticketed for "turning right between the hours of 3-7 pm"!!! What kind of stupid law is that?? I have a spotless record and have actually accumulated 5 positive points on my license cause I haven't had a ticket in so long. I asked for a break and he said "sorry here's your ticket its $91 have a nice day" wtf I'm gonna go to court and at least try to get it reduced to a non moving violation since I do have such a good record. Court is December 13th wish me luck

Heck yeah!! I mean I admit I didn't see the sign and technically I did break the law but cmon its not like I'm a habitual offender or anything. The ticket really won't hurt me any but its the principal behind it.

He clearly got into a fight with his wife the night before and was just pissed off the whole day to actually ticket you for that.

Can't you go to traffic school? Here in Arizona if you haven't had a ticket in two years you can go to traffic school & then it doesn't go on your driving record. I got a speeding ticket 6 years ago & when the police officer gave me the ticket to sign he also handed me all the info on traffic school & told me I was eligible for school. I went & it never showed up on my driving record. So with insurance I can claim no tickets.

Don't ever drive in Downtown Seattle. There are some streets like 3rd Avenue that you can't even drive on during certain hours of the day because the city only wants buses on the roads.

I've made that mistake a couple times but I never got nailed for it.

that cop sure does take his nascar seriously! Get it, no right turn *ba dum ching!*

But seriously, what kind of crap law is that? Is that like all turns or was it just a specific corner, cause there is a street in my town that is one way only during school hours, in the evenings and weekends it's both ways.
