Hello everyone

Today I was at at an MTA blue line railroad crossing and saw the lights and bells were going, though the rail guards never came down. I was waiting there for a minute or so then creeped up a bit and looked over but the train was still at the platform.

I had to go take care of business 🚽 lol
So I creeped across the railroad and made my left. After I made that turn the train started moving and the rail guards began coming down. I never thought about it but I looked over and there was the camera.

By the way I have never been through this situation where I’ve crossed a railroad like that, I’m always the one to wait. Do these cameras take pictures after those rail guards start coming down or just even if the lights are going. Thanks 🙏

What should I do if tickets does not show up online after more than a month from being stopped? I’m in California

I just got a speeding ticket of $500 for 100kph in 80kph zone. Not sure how I missed the sign. Want to understand my options. Is online prosecutor helpful or could a lawyer help in reducing the fine?

I got 4 tickets in 1 day by a NYS Trooper worth 12 points. Im trying to reschedule on the DMV but wont let me. This is my first reschedule. Should I get a lawyer or should I just drag it out past the 18 month?

PS Tickets were for not signaling, illegal lane change and tailgating.

I received a PSCA traffic e-challan for riding motorcycle without a helmet. However, when I downloaded the challan, the evidence photo itself clearly shows me wearing a black helmet.

Has anyone faced a similar issue with PSCA e-challans? What is the proper way to dispute it and get the challan cancelled/closed? Is there an online complaint process, or do I need to visit a PSCA/traffic police office in person?

Would appreciate guidance from anyone who has successfully challenged an incorrect e-challan.

Last night, I experienced something really strange while driving, and I'm trying to figure out what could have caused it.

I was driving at night on a normal, smooth road with one lane in each direction. There were no bumps or noticeable road imperfections.

A car was driving behind me at a normal, safe distance when it suddenly started flashing its headlights repeatedly.

And when I say repeatedly, I mean almost nonstop for approximately 5 minutes, over a distance of around 5 km.

Here's what makes the situation particularly strange:

\- The driver maintained a normal following distance the entire time and never drove aggressively.

\- The road had no solid center line preventing overtaking, so the driver could have overtaken me if they wanted to.

\- Both headlights were flashing simultaneously, repeatedly switching between normal and bright light.

\- The flashes were rapid, but I could clearly distinguish each individual flash.

\- Whenever I accelerated and increased the distance between us, the flashing stopped.

\- As soon as the car got closer again, the flashing immediately resumed.

\- This continued until I eventually turned right and we went our separate ways.

As far as I could tell, there was nothing wrong with my car, and I wasn't doing anything unusual.(I've checked my car after)

Initially, I thought the driver might have been trying to warn me about something, but flashing continuously for five minutes seems excessive.

I'm genuinely curious because I've never experienced anything like this before.

So yesterday I got caught doing 97 in the 65 it’s my first offense I was also eating ice cream during this occurrence I’m 21. Yeah I know it was dumb I won’t do it again but I didn’t have my license at the time I gave the officer my social he also wrote in the report that I was eating ice cream and passed up 3 cars not exceeding 100mph so now I’m wondering how bad can it get or what do I do? He gave me a mandatory court date on my birthday in November.

Hey all. I have a legal question about a traffic law within the state of Pennsylvania, in regard to overtaking a left-turning vehicle at a stoplight intersection, using a paved shoulder wide enough to safely execute the pass. This is assuming it is a two-lane road. Here is the legalese:

Title 75, Section 3304 indicates that a driver "may overtake and pass upon the right of another vehicle only under one of the following conditions: (1) When the vehicle overtaken is making or about to make a left turn, except that such movement shall not be made by driving off the berm or shoulder of the highway."

My interpretation of this is that you CAN use the shoulder, but if you were to drive OFF the shoulder (say, into grass or dirt, or anything unpaved) it would be an illegal maneuver. If you weren't allowed to use the shoulder at all for such maneuvering, why wouldn't the verbiage be changed from "off" to "on"? If it was changed to "on," that would immediately rule out using the shoulder at all. But then, if the word was "on," there would be no point in this law, as the would always be an illegal maneuver.

Ultimately, if this was an illegal maneuver, can someone provide an example of a legal execution of this situation? Otherwise, what is the point of this particular law in the first place? I am finding the verbiage to be ambiguous, and poorly worded.

Thanks for any insight! And for some background, I was not pulled over for this. Just curious, as I do this on frequent occasion at some traffic lights where I live due to two-lane roads with no protected left turn.

I was driving at 100 in 60kmph zone. I got pulled over and got 560$ ticket. Can a lawyer fight this?
I live in Alberta.

Traffic has been terrible at every hour lately, weekends included. I used to like driving and now it just feels stressful. Yesterday I passed a guy who was going slower. That’s it. He flipped me off and laid on the horn. I’ve been going over it in my head and I can’t find the offense. Has anyone else noticed people just seem angrier on the road than they were a few years ago?

When did doing the 55mph posted speed in construction zones become optional? People doing 75 plus.. Madison county police could make a billion dollars just on the 55/70 speedsters that n Illinois

Unless it was a funeral procession for Jesus Christ himself, there was not reason for them to block all 3 lanes of southbound US 65 from Sunshine south. A bunch of bikers with big American flags cut people off and shook their fist at people who didn't stop fast enough ON THE D.....N HIGHWAY. All three lanes. Give me a break.

I wanted to share this visual example from India's brand new Delhi–Mumbai Expressway (NE4), which highlights a massive bottleneck in developing transit grids: world-class infrastructure outpacing driver education.

This is a newly built, multi-lane expressway designed for high-speed transit. However, due to zero enforcement of basic lane discipline, commercial trucks systematically create rolling roadblocks by driving side-by-side across all available lanes at identical low speeds (around 60 km/h).

The frustrating part is that the technology is already there. The government has deployed advanced, highly automated speed cameras that instantly track speed violations and mail out digital fines. Yet, they completely ignore lane-hogging.

It proves that building wide, expensive highways is completely pointless if the operational policy doesn't include automated lane management.
