lummy 4 #1 June 13, 2002 I won !!!!WOO HOO!!!! Small Victory but it feels good nonetheless...Background is that I pissed off the US park police because I backed into the spot and went a little too far back onto the curb at Ocean Beach in SF. The Cop was going to write me a ticket for destruction of public property for parking on the grass until I pointed out that there WAS no grass. So being the nice cop, he gave me a break and only wrote a ticket for no front license plate, How nice of him :)Well, after reading the CA vehicle code which I was cited for which never specifically says you need to have 2 plates but in fact states that if they do issue only one plate, it should be in back, I decided to argue the point.Appearing in US district court this morning, I attended a Settlement conference with the US attorney and argued my case that CA vehicle code does not specifically state I must have 2 plates. After some deliberation and reading their copy of CVC 5200, they decided my interpretation of it was correct and they dismissed the case WOO HOO... YIPPY KAY AYE... Yippy KAY OOOO....Lummy does the Happy Dance :) the INTERNET comes in any color you'd like Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lummy 4 #9 June 13, 2002 Why? Because I didn't offer WHY the license plate wasn't there? It doesn't matter because it's Irrevelant.... the INTERNET comes in any color you'd like Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnnyD 0 #10 June 14, 2002 That is a good public service announcement for people who live in CA. Too bad I ate the same ticket last winter. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the other guy can't figure out to ask for it, then obviously they didn't want the info in the first place....!!!!....Ciels and Pinks-MicheleLife is what you make it; always was, always will be.~Grandma Moses~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
