This was in toledo ohio.
Alright, I got off the expressway and was next to a cop at a red light. I come to a complete stop and turn right on red. Then I am at another light and the cop pulls me over. I was dumbfounded, had no idea why whatsoever and I told him this. He just said I turned on red in a no turn on red area. I said I didn't se a sign. Well there were two and you weren't paying attention license and registration please..........I drove by the same place(not approaching from the original way though) and saw there was one no turn on red sign not next to the right most light which I was looking at when i turned. I went by again just exactly as when I did when I got the ticket. Again I couldn't see the no turn on red sign by the right most light. When the light turned green the sign came into view as I turned. It turns out that the sign was blocked by the post that runs from my roof to the hood, along the windshield in my car. The reason that it was blocked by the post was the white line that you stop at was not parallel to the road. I.E if you were making a right turn you were angled towards the right. Now i got a ticket for this, which is my second in a month. I see it as total bull because this turning on red ticket was totally an innocent mistake, I couldn't see the sign. And since i am 17 my license is going to most likely be suspended. Is there anything I can do to prevent my license form being suspended.
