UPDATE ON POST, GOT MY FIRST TICKET

   My last post was about how I got my first ticket in my truck making a right turn. You can read the whole story here: MY FIRST TICKET. I finally got the price of the ticket in the mail. I could not believe it when I read $238.00. That much for turning against a sign that is not posted all day! All I can say is unbelievable! I guess I will be doing the traffic school so it does not show up on my insurance or lose a point on my licenses.
The coast for that is $297.00! Well I guess it is what it is! Could have been a lot worse, he could have gave me a ticket for running a red light.

GOT MY FIRST TICKET!

   At the beginning of the month on October 4 I got my first ticket. Well technically my first ticket for a traffic violation. I have gotten a jaywalking ticket before years ago, but I won't go into that now. I have been driving since I was 15 years old and I am now 31. 16 years with out no traffic tickets is pretty good if you ask me. I know a lot of people who get tickets all the time.

   Okay, so the morning I got the ticket I was heading to work. Now down at the corner of Station and Castro Valley Boulevard (CVB), where I have to turn everyday, is a sign. Now this sign says,"No Right Turn On Red". The thing is that it is not always there all day, just in the morning. It will open up from like 7 am to I believe 9 am. The rest of the day you can make a right on red.
