Ok recently i was pulled over and fined for not indicating x 2. i dont have enough points left to take this lightly.
Here's what happened....
I was in right lane.
Van infront of me decides to do u turn at specific "NO U-TURN" sign, indicate at the last minute and leave their ass hanging out in the lane.
To avoid braking heavily and possibly receiving a rear end hit i checked the lane beside me, it was clear so i changed lanes, went around the van and back into the right lane...weeoooh cops pull me over.
I explained the situation, still got the fine and if it weren't for my permits, i woulda got a yellow as well.
I dont even remember if i indicated or not, the fact is it was a last minute decision because of the sudden change in what was a smooth continous traffic flow.
Anyone been through something similar? Is there a way to settle it out of court?
