Ticket on Snake for crosing double yellow. Didnt even come close to it...

Fight it...he will no show.

 

As much of a bs ticket this is.... It's just the cost of having a nice car. Fight it, but if the cop shows up you lose automatically.

 

taken it you haven't gotten a ticket out that way ?

 

Sorry, but You're done. CHP was the citing agency 100% they will show up. No, whatever grass head said that is way off, there is zero tolerance on touching and crossing yellows.

you wouldn't happen to have an orange MG ?

 

Most officers combine their tickets to a certain day to show up and handle all at once. So request for a day change and go on the new assigned day. There is a good chance that you will win for no-show.

 

There's a new Sheriff and the message is pretty clear...I haven't gone to the snake in a long while because it's just a ticket zone.

 

Somebody needs to go through there with a GoPro running. GoPro fixed on road by front left wheel and on the GPS that shows date and time and movement of car through the snake If you knew they were there, as evidenced on Waze etc, it wouldn't take much to have one of these cops issuing a bogus ticket and catching them in the act.

 

good luck.

 

there is truth to this using the waze app. they do not like it.

I was stopped in a turn out when I notched a chp car pulled up and asked me if I needed some help, I declined and he was in the middle of the road flagging over a group of MC riders on crotch rockets pulled up at a rest stop and then CHP along with park rangers forestry service enforcement following behind the riders, the LEO's started lecturing all of the rides who had Go-pro's and one of the LEO's mentioned

"if you have a go pro affixed to the front of a car and driving in a group you can be written up on various of infractions and other serious charges etc of street racing etc."

 

What's the name of the cop? I was stopped for double yellow cross on Mulholland last March, fought it, had a real ***** motorcycle cop. Can tell u more about it, if it's the same guy (Lost Hills Sheriff's office, not CHP).

 

First ticket in 18 years, on Mulholland: Welcome to CA! - California - GT-R Life

 

That slow car could very well have been a plant if no motorcycle cop anywhere in sight. At the speed you were going initially you'd think you would notice everything. Seems like everyone should have Waze going these days.(I haven't even tried it yet but it sure makes sense) As a matter of fact the more people using it the better to ensure accurate updates In this case if you had of been alerted you would have stuck behind the cop plant car until they turned him around to try and snag someone else.

 

I thought that so many times.... maybe they purposely have somebody going 35mph there endlessly during patrol times, knowing the double yellow continues for miles. Strange, but I didn't see that light blue Honda Fit at all from the time I was stopped, onward.

I've seen MANY more egregious double yellow passes/overtakes along Mulholland Hwy., especially by sport bike riders. Done in dangerous places, blind corners, etc. Where I was, it was straight and semi flat for over 3/4 mile. I think the motorcycle cop must have been ahead of me parked on the right, in front of the Honda just out of my line of vision. Just happened to do the pass in the wrong place at the wrong time.

 

Check and see if Rockstorephotos took a picture of you, if so might be able to use it to fight the ticket.

 

+1 also the pictures are dated.
