Re: Well, guess what?
I'd fight this ticket. You obviously knew the cop was there and took precautions not to hit him. That is what matters.
This law is so damn retarded. The whole point of the law is to prevent cops from getting hit when they have someone pulled over. But its the drivers who are not paying attention who are the ones that are moving into the shoulder and hit cops and vehicles on the shoulder. Having a law on the books to move over one lane is not going to make people pay attention. A dumbass who isn't paying attention, isn't suddenly going to pay attention because there is a law on the books to move over one lane.
They should just come up with more severe penalties for those who do hit people and vehicles on the shoulder. Making an attentive driver change lanes, which has its own dangers, is not the answer.
Okay, I'm done ranting.........
