My 25 year old daughter was heading home from work one day on a five lane highway she was on there was a lane to only turn right with a green arrow ,
since she was in the far right lane but behind 3 yes 3 cars not turning she decided to use the wide shoulder to get around these 3 cars and make the arrow to turn, out of nowhere a car ahead decides to do this also , to avoid hitting this car she(my Daughter) honked the horn and swerved to avoid and kept going after calming down she noticed this car following her and it made her kinda nervous , after getting home and greeting her kids and fiance, she hears a knock on the door , she opens it to see a policeman there who says he is giving her a citation for wreckless driving as he observed her incident at the intersection previously that day, and he was giving her a warning about littering for a cigarette butt she discarded out the window. when she asked if he drove a gold car (the one that tried to cut her off , he became more angry and dodged the question by asking if she had any questions about her citation, she asked then for his name and badge #. He gave her his name and # and then said I dont like your attitude , YOU WILL be Getting a fine for Littering instead of a warning! Does anyone know if this is legal or just plain being an ass? She is not a bad driver or person just wanted to get home to see her kids
Never had an accident , or speeding ticket , I'd just like some feedback about off duty cops doing this to other people.
