I generally agree with this statement except for two parts.I observed the accused's motor vehicle stopped in the left turning lane on columbia st facing westbound. I observed 3 pedestrians on columbiaa st facing eastbound waiting to cross albert st. I observed a male driver and a female front passenger in m/v. The traffic light turned green and observed the waling sign for the pedestrians to cross. I observed a pedestrian proceed to cross albert st walking with in the cross walking eastbound . I observed the accused begin to turn left onto southbound albert st and started honking at the pedestrian crossing albert st. I observed the pedestrian to be in the middle of the crosswalk and i observed the accused continue to make left turn and proceed to complete left turn turning behind the pedestrian.
There was in fact only one pedestrian waiting to cross Albert St. The other two had just finished crossing on a red signal, and appeared to be about to cross Columbia St, again against a red signal which had now just changed. This is shown on dash camera video.I observed 3 pedestrians on columbiaa st facing eastbound waiting to cross albert st.
I was in fact honking not at the pedestrian crossing Albert St., but at the two pedestrians which had already illegally crossed Albert St. and seemed about to illegally cross Columbia St, into oncoming traffic. In my opinion, I was warning them and other drivers to a potentially dangerous situation.I observed the accused begin to turn left onto southbound albert st and started honking at the pedestrian crossing albert st.
Perhaps the strongest part of what I think is a fairly weak case is this bit though:I observed the pedestrian to be in the middle of the crosswalk and i observed the accused continue to make left turn and proceed to complete left turn turning behind the pedestrian.
Frankly, I was so flustered at having been pulled over that I couldn't articulate what I was thinking. Lesson learned: Keep your mouth shut during traffic stops. Speak only when spoken to. I don't think this alone is sufficient for a conviction, but I do worry that it will hurt my argument that I was honking at the illegal-crossers.Accused started apologizing and stated " he thought he had the right of way , didnt know what i was thinking"
