Ticket on record...
 

I'm from CA. and 8 months ago I got a ticket for running a red light... Is there something I can do to get that ticket of my record ?????

another question... are we allowed to stop over rail road tracks at a stop light ?????

no and no.

The reason why I'm asking is cus I was pulling up to a stop light and it was red so I stopped behind the white lines before the tracks... When the light turned green I started going and while I was over the tracks the light started changing and right before I got into the intersection the light turned red.....

there was a police officer in front of me and he pulled me over... I told him I wasn't suppose to be parked over rail road crossing but he: "said to tell it to the judge"

I went to court and loss... I don't think I was at fault...

Cop must of had issues or something, they had a bus do that in the Chicago suburbs a couple of years ago and got wiped out by a 70 mph Metra train.
Bunch of kids got killed, all because the bus driver didn't get the hell off the tracks.
Id fight that on safety grounds, get hit by a train or go threw a stop & go, easy decision. :wink:

Yes, you were at fault. The citation was correct. You should have waited until the intersection was clear in front of you before proceeding forward over the railroad tracks. Since there was a car there (which happened to be a cop), then the intersection was not clear.

My thought here is..and it may be crazy...But...Why did it take you so long to get started, that the light changed on you?
Even in a tanker with surge going on, I can cross a set of 2 tracks and clear an intersection, before the light changes. :?:

It was clear and he was 15 feet ahead of me...

There's 4 sets of tracks... and the only ones going through the intersection was me and a police officer... Them lights changed pretty fast...

I was told by my employers to fight it... but how??? I already lost in court... I'll just lose again... Is there some kinda truck attorney that I can hire???

Aaaaaaaah. Red Light violation shouldn't be that big a deal...unless you have more on the record.

Reckless Driving, Speed to fast for Conditions, and 15 mph over are the biggest disqualifiers on traffic tickets. School Zone tickets are big as well.
