What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
hi first of all thanks for reading this, so i live up by grass valley and am visiting my aunt in walnut creek. my girlfriend took the BART to come see me, she lives in berkeley, anyways i'm about a minute away from getting to the bart station and i recieve a call from her, bluetooth of course, saying her blood sugar is dropping that she needs to get food asap, she's diebetic. now as i pull into the station there was a large line of cars on the left side, i see cars parked up on the right so i go right instead of left so i pull up to the curb, which happened to red( i find out later this is where the buses pick up, there were no buses there when i got there) now as she is getting in the car, a bart police officer chirps me. now he gives me a ticket 21461(a) cvc disobeyed posted signs, and i was in my aunts car and she didn't have her current insurance card in there, its in her wallet. back to the story he tells me i missed the signs, now when i pull out i forced to drive past the signs that i missed and two signs are blocked by tree branches (i took pictures) . i really think he was kind of harsh, a nice officer but a little harsh. I'm not from the area, i've taken the bart twice, first time picking some one up from bart, the signs were blocked by foliage, and my girlfriend needed food to raise her blood sugar. i want to contest the ticket for i am currently a student struggling to pay for my schooling and this ticket would break me, not to mention he said it puts a point on my license which puts me further in crisis with my insurance co. with my lack of income. i'm looking for any advice, i'm a good kid. thanks again for reading this
