Improper passing ticket

Nah, your post makes no sense at all. You got a ticket for improper passing, but you didn't pass anybody? Hell, I'd fight that all the way too!

Of course when you say you "drove on the double yellow lines to get to the passing lane," that sort of makes it sound like you were driving in the left turn lane BEFORE it became a left turn lane. That is a good way to have a head on, with a driver who is entering the street and clearing oncoming traffic from one direction while waiting to go another direction.

For heaven's sakes, I can see it exactly but I'm having a hard time putting it into words. . .

 

You sir, are an outlaw and a hazard to public safety!

I don't think this will effect you all that much, if at all, actually.

 

Four points is nothing most have a lot more then that.Just be careful in the future so they don't add up.

 

I crossed a double yellow line to use the opposing traffic lane to pass...lol

 

You can only get to the double yellow lines AFTER you are already in the far left lane.
It really sounds like reckless driving to me. You changed lanes much too quickly and didn't control your vehicle, so you crossed over the double.

And, I really don't want you driving around me if you are that careless.


Go back to basic drivers school, and get some perspective.

 

You're pretty vague about the circumstances, but it seems you committed the so-common-it's-nearly-universal 4-wheeler error of measuring travel by motor vehicle in seconds and feet if not fractions thereof.

Maybe driving for a living is not your thing...

 

It happens,hopefully you didn't waste your money on a lawyer.
