幾天前倒黴到家了,拿了unsafe lane change 附帶 unlicensed 兩個violations。
晚上7點多在高速(speed limit 65邁)左邊第二車道以時速65邁行駛,我看到右邊車道前麵沒車,後麵車較遠(大概至少有7、8個車位遠)就變道,結果沒想到後麵的車速極快(我估計至少有80邁),衝到我右後方blind spot那裏,我趕快把車轉回原道。後麵那車居然突然亮燈-警車!!我趕快開到路邊,停在路肩,對方要我直接開下高速路。
警察來了,問我為什麽轉道? 我說我按限速65邁,而且是go with traffic flaw, 轉道時沒想到你的車速這麽快。他當時要我駕照,我傻乎乎給了過期了一個月的加州駕照(其實我帶了中國有效駕照)。
警察給了的罰單上是VC21658(a)和VC12500(a)。
第一條:landed roadways
21658. Whenever any roadway has been divided into two or more clearly marked lanes for traffic in one direction, the following rules apply: (a) A vehicle shall be driven as nearly as practical entirely within a single lane and shall not be moved from the lane until such movement can be made with reasonable safety.
第二條12500. (a) A person may not drive a motor vehicle upon a highway, unless the person then holds a valid driver's license issued under this code, except those persons who are expressly exempted under this code.
(由於我的B1 business visitor status去年12月中過期,我申請B1延期,我去DMV renew駕照被拒,理由是我的status extension移民局還未批準,但被告知我可以用中國有效的駕照駕車。)
我和警察出示中國駕照,他說你在加州駕照上登記了住址,就是加州居民,所以需要加州駕照。
懇請老貓和諸位大俠支招,我要上庭。
