Georgia- I was on a test drive and figured I had gone far enough. So I turned on me left signal and turned into a parking lot. there were cops in the parking lot but I thought they were executing a traffic stop on the car they had pulled over. Well come to find out they were stopping the people pulling into this lot.
I asked the officer what I'd done he said I made an illegal left turn I asked where did it say we couldn't turn he said it was posted I went back to look no postings anywhere, what was there was the double yellow line but from what i read I could turn into a drive way from that lane. the lane I crossed was a turn lane does that matter in this instance?
exact ticket: FAILURE TO OBEY TRAFFIC CONTROL DEVICE
