Unfortunately, people do make errors while learning to drive with a learners permit. And, sometimes, people who have been driving for years also make errors while driving. We are all human, and as the saying goes, "to err is human."
Your wife did violate a traffic law and received a ticket for it. There is no differentiation in the law (that I am aware of) that states, "...a ticket will be issued with the exception of a person operating a motor vehicle with a driving permit." There are no exceptions in the law.
I don't think the judge will throw out the ticket because you can provide him/her wiith proof that other people have made the same mistake. As another saying goes, "two wrongs don't make a right."
If you are looking for a way to "beat" the ticket, you might want to follow the same route other people follow, and that is to plead not guilty, request a supporting deposition from the police officer that issued the ticket, and hope the officer doesn't show up in court.
Some people also "bargain" with the police officer. Ask the officer to reduce it to a non-moving violation.
If this particular area is a problem, I would bring it to the attention of the town. If a lot of people are making the same mistake in the same place, maybe you can have them clearly mark the spot.
Good luck!!
P.S.(to those whom this applies to) Attacking someones intelligence instead of trying to answer a question isn't very nice.
