- I received a ticket for traveling too long in a beginning and ending left turn lane to turn left at the next intersection.
Luckily I have a dash cam. I petitioned the court for "Trial by Declaration". I wrote a letter explaining what I did may not have been legal, however.... it was safe, and reasonable for the traffic conditions that were present, and sent in some still shots. The judge agreed and the ticked was DISMISSED. It was not ruled "Not Guilty". ** THIS VIDEO WAS MEANT FOR JUST A FEW FRIENDS, BUT HAS SINCE GONE CRAZY. THE TICKET WAS "DISMISSED"... NOT RULED "NOT GUILTY". THIS VIDEO WAS ONLY MEANT TO BE A "FEEL GOOD " VIDEO BY MY TICKET GETTING DISMISSED, ** ALL SUSPECTS ARE INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY IN A COURT OF LAW...... MY CASE WAS "DISMISSED". - Zábava

such dangerous driving, thank god no one was killed !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Haha, fucken menace!
Please give God his due respect moron...

Why respect him ? He clearly does not care for you.

fuck you, lord for even entertaining the idea of allowing a universe where your sentient creations could spend eternity in hell for completely trivial reasons that you programmed them to feel as natural acts. and double fuck you for thinking i should praise you for your infinte love and mercy at the same time. i have many more issues, but those are big enough to consider you either fictional or undeserving of anything but contempt.
I am a retired police office of 35 years. 27 years as a motorcycle cop. I would not have stopped this guy because the painted lines were very faded. That said I lost very few tickets because I wrote fair tickets and was not a prick when I talked to the driver. One funny ticket that I lost was a 18 year old female that crossed over the painted double yellow lines and also passed several stopped cars (driving 0n the wrong side of the road). I got behind her and put my red light on but she did not respond. I hit my air horn but she was not paying attention to her rear view mirrors and kept driving at the speed limit. Well I was in no hurry to stop her so I just followed her with my lights on to see when she would get the message and pull over. Well after 3 miles on city streets (Newport Beach) she pulled over. I asked her what was she thinking, and she had that beach blonde (I don't have a clue look). I issued the ticket and just shook my head.
Months later she took me to court and your not going to believe this. She walks in to Harbor traffic night court holding hands with a NUN in full habit The nun was in her eighties and was smiling at everyone in the court. I told the judge the above statement and sat down. The defendant got on the stand and stated she did not remember doing anything wrong. I looked at the judge and had to bite my lip to keep from cracking up. The judge looked at me then at the NUN sitting near the front row and said case dismissed.
That story is GREAT! I would have had to literally bite through my lip to keep from laughing. The only way it could have been better is if when she walked into the courtroom with the nun she was holding a boombox playing "The hills are aliiiiiiive....with the sound of musiiiiiiiiic..."
That's ridiculous
John Oconnor nice story! It was funny 😂
Stupid judge.
Thank you for your service. That's a very long time.
Bad boys bad boys Watcha gonna do when they copyright you
It’s called a copyright strike and I believe it falls under fair use
Bad cops Bad cops watcha gonna do when my camera is pointed at you
It's 'copyright'
😂😂😂 so true
@@waynehopps1757 it's been a long time since I posted that
i would love to have seen the cops face when he finds the case dismissed
want more subscribers, delete the 32 seconds of useless cops intro and get to the point
hahaha
African Warlord lmao you were just looking to flame someone. And that was a song. Probably good ones if you sat through it. Cops is a TV intro. Usually with video playing. Take it down a notch Jeez.
no, i wasnt.
Eric Sullivan you do make a good point, on youtube it is better to not have a long intro like this.
yuck you're the cringe of the internet, stop talking warlord
This stop lasted minutes and the potential profit was huge if you didn't fight it in court, which most people don't. The city is relying on people not fighting it in court. Good on you!
oogiemaster yeah good on him for falsifying evidence.
oogiemaster in Las Vegas you show up in court to fight the ticket (can't be done by mail), they ask how you plead. If you say not guilty they give you another court date two to three months down the road, when you show up they ask you how you plead and say you're there to plea not argue your case.......corrupt ass bullshit welfare program for assholes on bench......
+*Todd Poulton*, That's precisely what it is . . . one long drawn out process designed to coerce people into just paying the fuckin' fine. I'm glad this guy beat the system, and it appears to me a court that lets people mail in evidence of their innocence is very smart because it saves unnecessary time spent in court wasting time and money, not to mention the burden on employers having to give their employees time off for it.
kinda what I was thinking.. I'm in Las Vegas and went with someone to traffic court before.. it was the biggest joke I've ever seen.
+PureDoom ... what evidence did he falsify? Yeah, didn't think so. Like oogiemaster said, good for him. You, OTOH can go fuck yourself
Can’t wait for the day when all cars have these fitted as-standard
That's... actually a good idea
Only Tesla cars as far as i know.
🤔 OR you can just buy one. 🤷🏽♂️ They are reasonably cheap. They come in handy for all types of situations.
josb inyoface yeah... you can buy many things... still looking forward to the day they’re standardised though... would make everyone think twice before doing something stupid to another if everyone had them as standard. Think you missed the point.
David Bryant yea if they’re internet accessible. Most dash cams are closed systems on a recording though aren’t they?
Worst episode of cops ever.
Plexiate fancy seeing you here and with no comments? Can I call first?
The fuck plexiate doing here?
Rich Rich cringy
I agree with you,no domestic violence issues and nobody resisted arrest
@niftertube lmfao
1:36 you merged into the center lane before the intersection and drove through the intersection in that center lane. That's illegal and dangerous.
exactly what he was stopped for lmaoo, everyone in the comments but u is dumb af
I agree
He got away with it because he sent still images instead of the video
Nikki Mejia nah it was not legal, but due to the traffic situation and the actual law stating that you can’t travel 200+ ft after the beginning/end lane, the judge dismissed the case.
Exactly illegal use of the lane ticket for sure u got lucky man
I've done this maneuver. It's illegal, but it keeps traffic moving. That cop knew what he was doing sitting there with the right lane clogged up. Somebody was going to drive down the center to make the left turn. It's a legitimate ticket, but it seems like he would have better things to do.
And they sit there daily so if guy is a local he got caught slippin.
InnaterialDream, You cannot do it because it is not a dedicated left turn lane only for traffic proceeding in the direction he was going. It is a center turn lane that traffic from either direction can enter to make a left. Riding for long distances in that lane can cause accidents if a car in the opposite direction also wanted to turn left.
Wait so that lane allows traffic of opposing directions? WOW ... thats ... interesting and dangerous. Here in Hungary it is usually painted on the road that from the middle of it the lanes next to it can change lane to the turning lane. There is a clear painted line in the middle of that road like \ that traffic cannot pass thru because the other side is for the opposing traffic. But it never allows traffic in both directions at the same time.... wow that sounds way too dangerous. If someone want to turn on that lane they have to wait in line of the straight going traffic then change lanes when they reach the painted signs in the middle.
(edit) Forgot to mention that on some roads in the bigger cities there are flowerpots in the middle as the paint divides the road to further discourage people trying to go over it.
It's only a turn lane for both directions in certain spots. After that, like intersections, it's obviously for left turns only from a certain direction. He got in too early, but I understand why. There's no point in just sitting there if you are going to be turning. It IS illegal to do, yes. If you're caught, you get a ticket like the cammer did. He fought it though. Most people wouldn't. It's a good thing, and it's bad thing. When traffic is backed up, I honestly see no issue in jumping in early, as long as you're at the end of the traffic line like he was. If someone wants to turn the opposite direction, just make sure nobody is in the way when you get in. If the person jumping in early has to wait for someone else already in the lane, so be it. I've done it.
Oh well i still find it dangerous that it is allowed in amercia atleast without a mark on the road like here. I understand the logic behind it it is just wierd. But i guess every country has its own wierd rules.
You were clearly guilty of crossing solid yellow line.
Well I'm glad you got it dismissed. Although you clearly lied about where you entered that turn lane on your "evidence". The point you enter a lane is the moment any part of vehicle occupies it. You entered the turn lane before Ventura street. You can see your already hitting the line at least 60 to 80 ft before the black car pulls in from Ventura.
Hell yeah, congrats. Just bought and installed my first front/rear dashcam and will do so for every vehicle I own in the future! It pays for itself, like in this video!
I particularly applaud your professional reaction in dealing with situation in a meticulous and illustrative details, no point in arguig and being disrespectful to the cop. even if he was in the wrong You did right by following the legal channels while resting your case. well done!!
Nice I'm getting a dash cam thanks for convincing me
You nailed it, that’s everybody’s thought when They see a cop behind them for no reason. By the way. I live on Long Island and I do that all the time can’t believe you were stopped for that
I google maped this location and using the video as reference and counted around 400ft of travel in the turn lane. How on earth he came up with 192ft is beyond me.
Max Melnik because he wanted to pick a number under 200 ft and well 192 it is! Yeah this was illegal
Max Melnik dude I'm looking at it now and Idk how anyone who looked at it thought this was less than even 350 ft its ridiculous. granted the charge was quite a bit for just traveling over 200 ft in a center lane but he should have just had a lessened fine, but a fine nonetheless
You can also count the dash lines. They are painted every 40 feet (10 foot dash, 30 foot space) and I counted about 12 of them. He traveled at least 400ft in the center lane.
Yeah, I googled it too and the distance from Venture St to the light is 444ft, he entered before Venture St though, that's way over 200ft even if subtracting him being back 33ft or more.
But, hey, he got out of the ticket which means the Judge basically went on the honor system. And i'm sure he believes it because he posted all the info online thinking it was right. Sometimes courts are right and sometimes wrong.
Did you measure to the stoplight or the start of the turn lane? Because where the actual turn lane starts for the intersection is where you would stop measuring.
I wish you got that ticket.. 30 second intros, that aren't even yours, are downright absurd.
he did get a ticket
Lol
haha
He got the ticket but then got it dismissed.
wow really? over that get a life idiot
I really liked your video, your title explains exactly what your video is about & you have an outcome of a dismissal! I hate watching a video an there's an arrest or ticket but no follow-up or explanation of what happened. Thanks for the closure, makes it more enjoyable to watch!!
Out of curiosity, when it gets dismissed this way, does the issuing cop find out it was dismissed since it never went to court, or is he just left figuring you paid it?
When a ticket is challenged in court, the issuing officer is required to attend the court date (6th Amendment). If the officer does not show, then the ticket is summarily dismissed. If they do, they are allowed to provide testimony as to the specifics of the citation.
@@christophergreninger6952 exactly what i thought. He basically rode the lane for an entire city block.
@@karlynn7719 Know of several cases whereby the ticketing officer did not appear in court. 2x the judge dismissed the cases and 3x she set a time and date for a subsequent hearing. The alleged offender had to take another day from work to appear.
More folks should spend a day or two sitting and observing in a court room to observe justice in action.
@@shadowgarr7649 heh, I agree that more people should just go grab a seat in a traffic or district court... possibly not as good an idea NOW, as it was when this thread started, lol.
I should have said "may" be summarily dismissed, as the judge has a TON of latitude in how to precede. If the issuing officer isn't there, they tend to dismiss. At least that's how it used to be.
It’s a myth that if the officer doesn’t appear in court, the ticket is dismissed. It can be but most often the hearing is rescheduled for the next court date.
I love the logic of traffic tickets. The cop will take the same path you do (dangerous or not), at twice the speed you did and if need be run people off the road/out the way all to give someone a ticket in the name of "safety". **Cough cough** quota....
Good point. Their protractors will undoubtedly say they can do it safely though, being cops and all. So no chance anyone might turn into that lane blindly, despite the blinky lights.
The cop in the video entered the turn lane after going thru the intersection. The driver who was ticketed drove thru the intersection in the turn lane. A violation.
+Matt hey, That's why police vehicles have these things called lights and sirens. Guess what? They also exceed the speed limit to catch speeders? Amazing how that has to work, huh (at least until they are able to teleport). Besides, it's really easy not to get a ticket . . . just stop breaking traffic laws.
Yea, because no cop has ever ticketed someone who was following the posted speed limit......(astronomical amount of sarcasm there)
+Matt hey ??? Never heard of anyone being pulled over for following the speed limit, so I have no idea what you're going on about. There are more than plenty of people out there who _are_ speeding, so there's no reason a cop would have to lie about their speed reading to make up a reason to pull someone.
It's getting so bad that every body is going to have install a camera on there forehead
@David Morgan What software did you use to put the text in the screen cap of your petition?
Thanks for the whole intro...never heard it before!
I love the cherry picking on the still he used to show where he was "stopped" behind the pick up truck. He rolled right up to the hitch in the original footage :)
I see your Problem @1:35 you moved over way to soon. You moved over an on coming traffic lane turn lane and went up the side of the turn lane to turn left avoiding the cars which can be dangerous and illegal in some states.
Not saying what I did was legal. Just showing the greatness of a dash cam that can push things "your way" if you use it right. I was very lucy... but again, with the letter I drafted to explain the reasons why I did what I did, along with still shots of the video, I was able to tweek it and bend their decesion to benefit me. I was well aware of the traffic around me and made sure I pulled into that lane safely.
maritime traffic laws pertain to boats and ships not private property deemed consumer goods (vehicles) by the SUPREME COURT, not too mention people in Calif. should read CVC 260 then call the Calif DMV CORPORATE OFFICES IN DOWNTOWN SACRAMENTO, and ask them about this law and if Lic,Insurance, or plates are required, REMEMBER IMPLYING SOMETHING TO BE REQUIRED BY LAW WENT IT IS NOT HAS A NAME, FRAUD!
Civil Disobedience is not a CRIMINAL ACT AS DEFINED BY HABEAS CORPUS a flesh and blood victim, the state cannot claim damage or rights as a flesh and blood individual, an artificial entity cannot claim human rights!
Michael Smith, Actually you are incorrect here. A criminal act simply needs to put people at risk, which he did. From uslegal "Criminal act is an act committed by a person that violates a law and which is punishable by the government. Criminal acts are offenses against the public which are punishable. It can be any act or omission or possession which poses a threat to the public." Note, poses, which means no actual harm need be done.
INCORRECT a criminal offense is defined by HAEBEAS CORPUS, ENTRAPMENT IS WHEN COPS HIDE OR USE BUILDINGS, TREES OR OTHER VEHICLES, CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE IS NOT A CRIME, i HIGHLY SUGGEST YOU GO READ SOME LAW BOOKS LIKE I HAD TO IN LAW SCHOOL, AND IF WHAT YOU SAID IS TRUE THEN HOW COME THE TICKET WAS DISMISSED, THE VIDEO PROVIDED EVEDIENCE OF ENTRAPMENT YOU DIPSHIT, and look up the definition of intent under legal English not too mention " But for" the moment of causation!
That center lane should be used for any vehicles going the opposite direction to turn onto Venture to your right (their left). I'm a motorcycle rider and people do this all the time and have almost run me over in the process. The turn lane doesn't begin until the break in the yellow line. This driver got lucky.
I have a question, there's a right turn lane... There's two entrances for parking lot and the right turn lane ends at the lighted intersection so you turn right... Can I enter the right turn lane at the beginning, where there is dashed lines to enter, and travel the whole lane to the end where it turns right onto lighted intersection or would that be "passing"?
That was a ticket for sure bro.. at 1:38 you went straight on that middle Lane which is not to go straight, is to make left onto driveway ....At 1:44 where that BIG RIG IS AT, is where you're supposed to enter on to the left hand turn lane lol......you got lucky
No, you can enter the [shared] left turn lane and be in it for up to 200 ft. He did not have to enter by the big rig. However, I do believe a mistake was still made on the driver's end of things, you are correct in the fact that it should be a ticket.
You shouldn't be going through an intersection in a shared left turn lane, even if your just staring to merge into it.
He could enter that turn lane anytime after the intersection, not before it.
Not trying to be rude, just trying to give you some more knowledge.
Feel free to search up, ask a leo, or driving instructor to verify this if you are still unsure.
It is up to you as a driver to decide what actions is best for your safety and the safety of others.
@@StackableGoldMC Exactly, I would of waited until I was closer to the intersection before traveling in that lane.
Yeah, one of those impatient asses. Turns out that move cost you much more in time.
I'm SO glad you had the dash cams. They certainly will try you up.
Pisses me off people driving down the turn lane like it's another lane. I have seen too many crashes by mouthbreathers who have not a clue that this is bad move.
You got lucky.
Center lanes are not to be used as an extended turning lane for your convenience, regardless of traffic conditions. Try doing that during rush hour like many motons in Phoenix and watch the number of accidents as a result.
Glad you got it dismissed but it does seem you entered way sooner than you needed to - what was another 50-100 feet? you were moving - not like it was a standstill... just saying. If the guy in front of you decided to turn left at the same light, he would have been out of luck or hit you.
Well that's why you have mirrors on the car and can move your head before changing lanes.
That's a weird rule for me (from Germany) but maybe because we don't have such centerlanes which change into turning lanes.
if they changed lanes into your lane that would fall them if they hit you, must yield to other already there
Road rules allow drivers some expectation as to what other drivers will do, if they follow those rules. As others have stated, if a driver ahead of you pulled into that turn lane where rules state you should, why should they be at fear you will hit them because you want your own personal express lane.
@Game0Pat it's to avoid idiots driving on the center lane for miles to pass other cars patiently waiting, and because it is very dangerous to move fast on the center lane (traffic could come from both directions, which some drivers are not expecting, especially not at fast speeds).
Every video on youtube ive found so far of dashcams where people say they didnt do anything...has them doing something dumb
Young Man... I'm glad that you won your traffic ticket case 👍🏿
The worst part of disputing tickets generally is you have to pay the ticket to dispute it, then it's refunded if ruled in your favor. Basically, unless it will add points against your license, fighting the ticket is designed to be more of a hassle than most are willing to contend with.
1:55 you can hear him locking his Iphone, using the phone while driving too? tisk tisk
Without that footage that corrupt cop would have made revenue for his unlawful stop.
What dash cam do you use? I can't seem to find a good one.
Bail amount refunded...did you get arrested? You pay First then have hearing? Please explain if possible..I'm curious. Thx
At 4:29 you reference that you enter the turn lane roughly adjacent to the silver SUV, yet at 2:12 we see you clearly enter much earlier, adjacent to the second small white car. Looks to be a good 60 feet back from the silver SUV.
good thing you weren't the judge.
"There were 21 vehicles in line from the light back" I count 6.
7 in front including the pickup in the left turn lane, 14 behind and not seen looking forward
Overkill
All the more reason to never drive without a dash cam! Nice work.
its amazing seeing the differences between my country and this one. in my country, the earlier you can go pre-sort ( is that even a word in english? no idea) for a left / right hand turn on intersections, the better.
but once the turn lane 'goes solid' you are no longer allowed to change, its basicly the right oposit of what you see here,
here your lane is solid untill it opens up in the end, while in my country its open, and it locks up in the end so people cant do dangerous last moment lane changes.
Reasons for rear dash cam;
Guy rear ended me and ran... got his lic plate and he was arrested for hit and run. I also got the insurance company to replace my rear bumper with zero deductible.
Caught numerous accidents on video and helped people... also this video was shot with rear dash cam.
David Morgan Where can I get one of those dash cams?
+BuyTechNow amazon, Walmart, best buy, eBay, google,
dyuuuuiihhhhh
Date stamps on cameras not synchronized...
This is a useless video
If I had been the cop, I'd have written a different ticket. You went straight through an intersection in the left turn lane. Did nobody else notice the breaks in the painted lines?
This is stupid. You start to pass them before most of them even stopped. They could have been meaning to turn at the light, as well, and you would have blasted past them. You got impatient and wanted to skip the wait.
You fucking moron.
He was turning. When you turn, you go into the turning lane. Woah!!!
Azcaveman is right, the car in front of him could have wanted to turn left, but this guy decides to use the turn lane as a lane and pass him
True then it would have been this guys fault for hitting them. what can u do lol
Do their cars not have signals to advertise this intent? Weak.
Thank you for sharing. I would never have thought that even if by technicality it can be dismissed if you are able to prove reasonable circumstance.....reconsidering my purchasing a dashcam. lol WTG
Good dash cam footage. What kind of cameras were these? I'm interested
You definitely drove in the median too long.
Again, he won because of existing conditions and what he did was not hazardous. Traffic tickets are not meant to be for revenue enhancement. They are meant to dissuade unsafe driving.
Everyone seems to forget that there was a reason for the backup...
You won't get away with blowing through a red light just because it doesn't happen to be hazardous either.
See this is why most people pay bogus tickets because you don't know the law and when you are presented with the truth you stick to your broken guns. Cut off your nose to spite your face eh? The law states darn near everywhere that you cannot exceed 200 feet of distance in a turning lane. This guy was there for 192' therefore is was legal. Why don't you actually learn something in case this happens to you.
...lol He didn't measure from where he entered the lane. He entered well before the black car. I'd bet any amount of money the cop was sitting at 205 feet.
Mean Bear I bet you all my worldly possessions the cop is not a lawyer and the people who dropped the ticket are far more versed in the law. I'll even take out a loan and give it to you if you can find a court who gives away money because the person who got the ticket "just wants it". (Of course this does not include cops, or people who know judges and politicians). People need to learn that far too many tickets are given and paid because people and cops don't know the law well. This comment section is a prime example. 90% of people here don't realize that wasn't an intersection he passed. The side street did not CROSS the street this guy was traveling on.
The biggest problem is that you had to go to court period to do anything when it should have been handled right there in the moment
That would have required .....
IQ, above 40
Polite approach by cop. Introduce his agency, himself, state the offense, ask for papers.
Google maps, great thing. Dropping a pin where you went in and then stopped puts you traveling at nearly 450 ft in the lane. Got lucky, you should've had to pay. For those actually interested, put in destinations 2301-2305 Auto Park Way, Escondido, CA 92029 and 2324 Auto Park Way, Escondido, CA 92029 as the start and stop.
Don’t deep throat the boot, Mr. Cox.
If I were that cop I would have explained pretty firmly that putting any vehicle on the right lane in danger on the off-chance they decided they needed to be on the left lane and didn't anticipate someone breaking road rules and rushing up on a lane they shouldn't have been on is far too risky to let pass. So many accidents occur because people become complacent with the road rules. Good for the officer in trying to preserve safety, over convenience.
oh shuttup
Nd you is what is wrong in the world nugget
It's always recommended to check mirrors before changing lanes; this applies just as much to left-turn lanes as anywhere else. No-one is being put at risk by one vehicle moving by in the left-turn lane, and any other driver needing to turn left can simply let him pass before merging into the left-turn lane.
Using Google Maps you switched to the turning lane just before Venture Street. You then drove up the turning lane to to the intersection of Auto park Way and Enterprise Street. Using Google Maps distance tool, it shows it's 477.86 feet from where you turned into the turning lane to the point where you stopped behind the truck,
You turned in beside the Amerigas propane parking lot. From the entrance of Amerigas to where you stopped behind the truck at the intersection was 477.86 feet.
You were over double the 200 foot legal limit.
Traffic in the area was not to the point where you needed to drive up the center lane almost 500 feet.
You ran up the center and crossed over an intersection and parking lot where if someone went to turn into one of them you could have caused a head on collision.
The entrance of Reiss Racing and Restoration is 204 feet from the intersection.
You go lucky the department or courts didn't simply go measure the distance. You broke the rules on the road and got lucky.
spydergs07 he won cause the cop didn’t show up
Glitzy X4X the cop showed up but he was eating doughnuts 🍩 in the cafe
I need a camera like that I only have a front facing which camera did you use I'm in Richmond Virginia
What kind of cameras are you using
I am surprised you didn't get a ticket for following to close, but then again it could just be the angle of the video.
Tech4hire It's the angle, notice the side of the road. Majority of the time you can see two cars of distance between his car and the car in front.
That's a ticket anywhere I've ever been
doesn't mean it's not unfair given the circumstance, as the court agreed with
Court didn’t say why it was dismissed.
stop going to the wrong places
Ya A wrong ticket. Use your brain like this guy did and fight it.
Ken E Who knows why it was dismissed. Could be a technicality.
Over $230 for "not dotting the i", or driving EXACTLY the way THAT particular officer expects. Muchless, making the ASSUMPTION that the driver drove entirely intersection to intersection in middle lane). FAULT FINDING MISSION instead of any ability to understand how FRIVOLOUS this ticket/citation is!
It's a shame these officers don't have consideration as to inconvenience citizens with such expensive, yet MINOR infraction(s). Worse being so deliberate as they realize most will acquiesce by simply sending in the fine for the ticket(s). That cop is the epitome of such low-grade tactics, of which I suppose his department is so proud...
... can't believed Hayley Williams was blessing your ears with great music and you changed the station 😂😂😂
I know that area, so it was interesting to see this, especially since I work near there. Glad you got it dismissed. That cop was desperate to write someone up for anything.
Agreed - One can see from the rear facing cam that he entered the middle turn lane BEFORE he reach the driveway where the police officer was parked. In his images to the court he says, with arrows, that he entered the turn lane WAY AFTER the actual point where he DID in fact enter.
You entered the left turn lane before the red parked pickup I am not law enforcement but you were wrong. The fact that you lied to him and said you did not was sufficient to cite you. Sorry but you were wrong and deserved the citation!
1:54 "vous écoutez" (on the radio) Did I get this right ? Is this a french speaking radio station ?
Can you tell me what kind dash cam you use
i mean technically he did go from intersection to intersection and passed a moving car in the process...
that traffic was diverted was the excuse, and his driving was smooth ...
@@christophergreninger6952 the judge did not agree with you; the cop wasted our money on a very minor situation; that is not excusable; nothing else to do????; start digging on unsolved crimes or reduce their budget and save us money; they are our employees, they brake the law more often than us, not only in traffic, but against the actual people that pays their salary, and they get away with it; this was totally out of order; no logic, no reasoning, no brains
@@christophergreninger6952 in addition, when traffic is diverted, laws are eased, good cops know it; tyrants use any means to control, any excuse, as minor as this, wasting our money and dividing us
I definitely feel that you got over way too soon. You should've started your entry into the turn lane no sooner than after the intersection. And, ideally, you should've entered the turn lane after you came up on the black car, and no sooner. You for sure rode the lane.
Actually, also a good point. But I am still glad he put up a defense and didn't give up his $239 without a fight.
SugaDontPlay. While I agree with you about the waiting part, I'm not gonna call him down on his move either, I mean it wasn't unreasonable. Here though (Texas), make sure all the traffic is almost at a stop and you can't go any further, because the allowed travel distance is only 100'...
I've seen plenty of drivers get into the turn lane as soon as they reach stopped traffic. But probably what is illegal is not making the left at the first intersection you reach. In neighborhoods with side street intersections this close to a major intersection, this is sure to be a ticket generator. Runnemede NJ has a similar setup on NJ168 southbound just past the NJ turnpike overpass. Cars wanting to make this left are known to ride up the hill in the turn lane past that backed up line of cars, and the cops are known to ticket. In other areas with no intersections that close to the light, the lane is fair game.
James Olson. Interesting. A little hypocritical on law enforcement's part I think though...
Guilty!!! should be 2 tickets, 1 for illegal pass through intersection, this was almost wreckless driving wow
Great information to know thank you for making the video
I love it when us citizens can stick it to the government. HOWEVER - you would have never entered the turning lane that early if it weren't for the slow Mazda in front of you. Your determination won you this just as much as the dash cam. There was no reason, despite what you showed us here with the irrelevant hoopla, to have entered the left turning lane that early. This happens a lot in my city where people enter the left turning lane WAY before it opens up, and it causes lots of accidents. There are LINES on the road for a reason. Still, good for you that you put in the time and effort to make the courts not want to deal with it. For that I definitely commend you.
sounds like you locked your phone at 1:59... tut tut
Hugh Mad was just about to comment this
Sounds...
I don't hear anything.
Hugh Mad wtf is tut tut
Sounds like the truck suspension. Roads aren't always perfect
Cop drove same lane same distance. Why didn't he write himself a ticket. Wtf
That Escondido cop was fired after that ticket dismissal my guess, and will not be getting promoted to lead traffic enforcement officer either! Im sure he was not counting on two experts being present above his job title (dash cam) cops just really DISLIKE those devices when caught in the wrong!
When you record your TV for an intro 😂
Underrated comment
Pls explain. I dont get it. Did he go to the left lane too early or what?
You can't go through intersection in that lane, that is pretty much considered a turn lane.
Ashtyn&Jon It is a two way left turn lane.
I was thinking this before the cop even pulled out. The yellow lines stopped, which indicated a turn section. Arizona would pull me over for this and I would get fined, fighting or no fighting.
I see that all the time.
pause video at 1:37 and ask yourself, "should he be in the turn lane this far from the red light?"
The second lane looked full and that is for going forward. We don't have turning lanes for both ways in Europe, so the situation in the video will not ever be found in Europe. In my opinion, there driver didn't do anything dangerous, just preparing for a left turn a bit earlier than supposed.
you are correct the second lane was full. He was supposed to stay in the lane until he got much closer. The fact that the turn lane has to be used for 2 directions increases the need for the lane to be kept open and available. If not, many people would just use the turn lane as an express lane to avoid traffic.
Yea well maybe he wanted to save 1 min because that one min he'll never get back at red light or 2 mins waiting behind everyone because big brother says so ...no harm no foul he went slow not like I would of floor it n go u sallys
i have to say yes, he was turning left, not just going around, and the traffic was backed up from light to light, they dont call them suicide lanes for nothing
Thats called a suicide lane correct?
I do this all the time. Thanks for the info.
Hey, did you send the video to the court or just pictures with colors?
Strange rules. Surely if you are turning left the left turn lane is the place to be!
Except there are entry rules on distance to an intersection.
He passed an intersection and parking lot where if someone else needed to turn left coming from the opposite direction he could have caused a head on collision.
He needed to turn left but was 477 feet before the intersection. The rules are no more then 200 feet before your desired turning area.
in britian if theres a "shared" centre turning lane it will have a transverse dividing line and/or a hatched no go area where it switches its purpose from one side to the other and big white arrows pointing to where you can/can't turn into. the US system looks pretty dangerous,and the lines also need redoing - probably not in green this time... the OP was driving too close tho so should have been given a slap on the wrist anyway
It's a two way turn lane, and the law limits the distance you may travel in it to 200' (≈60m).
60m isn't very long. Shared lane seem stupid IMO, just separate them out for either direction depending on which direction has a turn at that specific point. All these people saying you could've caused a head on are ridiculous, if you couldn't see the car in the middle lane and got in it and crashed head on, you ought to lose your licence, everyone has a duty to avoid an accident, and just because you're in the right, have right of way or people are SUPPOSED to give way to you, doesn't mean you should crash into someone because of it, thats the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
At 50km/h ~ 31mph, you're doing about 15m/s, 60m will go by in 4s, it takes a second or so to get in the lane.... so 200ft seems incredibly small.....
Another motorcycle cop "hard" at work. The chaos and violence they protect us from is miraculous! Complete waste of our tax money.
excellent - that rear facing dash cam almost paid for itself ... nice detective work - evidence has its rewards ... i would think about getting another cam for my rear flank ...
Had a situation where a cop said I made a left from a left turn lane on a red. I knew at that time from what she said there was no way she could see whether my light was red or green. Did the same analysis as this guy but there were no dash cams back then. The cop never showed. Dismissed! Most intersections have crossing traffic both red for a sec or two before one goes green. Not this intersection. Light goes green and cross traffic goes red nearly simultaneously. With help of another I timed it and the time interval was about 2 tenths of a second which included the delay time for the observer to raise his hand and me watching the other light hit the stop button on the stop watch. Take out our reaction times and there is zero overlap of reds. I think the cop knew it and did not expect me to figure it out. Another time on a military base I was stopped for making a right at a stop sign and not first coming to a full stop. The cop was correct. I never saw the sign. Went back the next day. That stop sign must have been installed in the 40's when the base was built. It was about 75% of a modern stop sign. Never before or since in the US or Canada have I ever found one that small. Nearly non reflective, partially hidden by tree branches. A few weeks later I put a video recorder on my dash and drove around the base after dark. The modern stop signs were so reflective they saturated the image, due to the low light conditions, to the point you could barely make out the word STOP -- just a white blur. The sign in question was barely visible in the video. And by this time many of the leaves had fallen from the branches that had blocking the sign. Somehow I got an audience with an ADA. They looked at the video. Checked my driving record. Dismissed! I think the military cops just sit waiting for people to miss the sign and write tickets. This also helped www.paynofine.com/
you should have gotten a ticket. you entered the turn lane to early
You...You...TOO early!!
Did we watch the same video steve b? He did get a ticket yes, but it was dismissed and he got his money back. Technically he got a ticket, but in the end he didn't.
But the ticket was dismissed and he got his money back. That's like being punished and sent in your room when you're a kid but be allowed to use your phone and computer, it won't do shit. Is that punishment? No, and neither was that a valid ticket. It was indeed a ticket, as good as one I could write myself on a napkin and hand to you, doesn't make it a valid one though.
At the point he moved in the turn lane legally he would have to turn left where the police was, a turn lane even if you turn is not to be used as a passing lane even if empty... It's about using it properly so it's safe for everyone. If someone else followed the law there and used the turn lane when they could move to it there could have been an accident.
I'm for motorcycles lane splitting, they can't where I live a few petitions went around which I did sign but they were all rejected. Sometimes things don't seem to make sense but generally laws are there for safety as long as everyone do what they have to, one person does this and safety goes out the window.
If a bike was lane splitting there, what could and would have happened?
That is an all too common mistake I see bad drivers make every day.
You did actually drive through an intersection in the center lane, therefore, you went from one intersection to the next in the center lane.
He got a ticket for driving too long in the LEFT LANE to make a left lane turn.
fuck you
I had hard difficulties to understand what the driver did wrong, because there are no indisputable road markings. As an european driver I would have got a ticket too. How much is the fine usually?
Dewd you turned the doors? I was like, finally a video that the driver is not listening to techno!
Wtf... I randomly click on a video and it's of someone getting pulled over in my home town. I think CZcams is watching me... Or trying to tell me something.
run
Damn me too
Same here, bro. Not only from Esco, but I know the cop in the video too.
synchronous AI hivemind network
same too
Yeah you got lucky bro, because you were absolutely in the wrong. You should have waited until the light ahead turned green and the traffic moved forward and entered the turning lane closer to the light. Its kind of a petty thing to pull someone over for but that doesnt make you any less guilty.
He *measured* the distance and it was under 200 feet. No law was broken.
The letter of the LAW; reasonable and prudent for existing conditions. What you and the cop are citing are code violations. This is the corruption We the People elected Donald J. Trump to the office of President of the United States in order to correct. The difference between LAW and code is paramount to a free people. Learn it so we can Live it.
So nice to see one of these type of videos be legit for a change. Good on you!
Although, it is important to realize the cop really just cited you foe the wrong offense. It is a violation in California to to make a lange change 100 feet before or after an intersection. Of course, it is these silly types if offenses most cops would just let slide.
Glad you got dismissed though.
Title should read "Ticket dismissed.... Regardless of Dash Cam, Thank you Judge."
Nice editing. But your video shows you merging into the lane prior to the intersection.
Just to make sure I looked at your video again and you were passing the grey car prior to the intersection , good job anyway.
At 1:38 is when he enters the middle lane which isnt even close to 192 ft but then takes a pic of him being less than 200ft which is at around. He even goes through Venture street while being in the mid lane. Dude was driving too aggressive with his impatient, it was indeed needed of a warning at least.
Damn glad you had proof to save you from the road pirate! Hell I got dragged into court once for "unmowed lawn" while I was actually mowing my lawn!!! Judge dismissed the charges against me when animal control officer spoke up as a witness told the judge she seen me mowing my lawn when I got ticketed. I went back home finished mowing my lawn. Same officer came over inspected my yard looking to see if I missed an area. Mind you I was using an old time non motorised push rotor mower in mid summer weather.
Nice camera which brand?
seems like alot of work to get out of a summary moving violation..... too much time on your hands maybe??
Seems..a lot...
David Morgan+ Copyright for using the Bad Boys (aka cops) theme song without adding it to the disc of the video.
Funny to see and good to know how different things are in the US than here in most European countries. Where you drove into the turn lane is the normal spot to take the turn lane in Europe. We don’t need to wait that many meters/feet before taking the left or the right lane.
You pulled out to pass in an intersection and did go over the distance if the blocks. In my state it's illegal to pass in an intersection.
So you admit it wasn't legal but because it was safe and reasonable they let you go so I will use that every time I go through a red light when there's no traffic. Cheers.
I agree, not ticked should have been issued. But with driving habits like that, it's only a matter of time until you're involved in an accident. Not a defensive driver. (Probably had several close calls before, that's why he has a dash cam.)
...'NO TICKET'..should...
I'm getting a cam,. What is a good front and back cam to get.
That "Fuck" and "Shit" were the words of a man who needed to extinguish his bowl! lol
