What is the name of your state? Georgia

Greeting all. I recently got stopped for "driving on wrong side of roadway." Traffic was backed up by a turn lane, which was blocking me from going straight. So from a complete stop I cut to the left to go around two vehicles so i could go straight. That took me into a turn lane for the opposite direction. And i was only in there for abot 2 car lengths. There was no oncoming traffic at all. The officer wrong on the ticket as the offence "Wrong side of roadway." The Violation code he wrote is 40-6-40. The code he cited when i look it up is for obstructing traffic, which is not the case. The actual code for driving on the wrong side of the road is 40-6-41. The fine is not to bad but still sucks at $105, but its my insurance I dont want messed with. I havent had any violation in over 4 or 5 years, so my record is great and so are my rates. And I dont want to plead no-lo on something like this. Let me know if i can get this dropped as a technicality. Or can make a plea to keep it off my record.
