I was driving west on a oneway street and stayed on the left turn lane. There was a small street sweeper moving very slow on the crosswalk and I drove pass it and made a left turn. Then at the end of the block a policeman on a bike came out and stop my car and then gave me a ticket for improper left turn. I was driving on the turning lane and I check to see if I have enough time and space to turn without hitting the people crossing the street. Do I have to wait for all people to and the sweeper to completely finish crossing before I can turn? (The sweeper was moving slower than the people crossing the street) If I go to court, do I need to hire someone to fight it? And do any of you think I have a chance of winning?

The city finally sent me a letter....so long. They are not proceeding the case against me. And the ticket is cancel...... Looks like they know they made a mistake or cannot win.... :)

Best case scenario!

Best case scenario!

What kind of a man would put a known criminal in charge of a major branch of government? Apart from, say, the average voter.
