What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Maryland
City: Ocean City
Road Condition: The road had a partation for two way traffic with double yellow lines. The speed limit was 30mph.
Scenario: There was a car in front of me going at 20mph so I overtook it. Immediately a cop car pulled me over. I knew I made a mistake, so complied with the officer's 'orders'. Later he came up to me with two tickets. 1st Ticket: 21-301(a) Failure to drive right of center ($90 fine) and 2nd Ticket(Hand written): 21307(b) Passing in No Passing Zone painted line ($90 fine).
My question: Can either one of these tickets be contested because either one seems redundent? Should I take this matter to court to get one of the tickets dismissed?
Thank you and I will definitely appreciate any advice.
