I see illegal left-turns every day. You must make a left turn into the left lane. Not a left turn into a right lane. I remember my Mom almost getting a ticket for that over 55 years ago. Of course the cop just wanted to meet and talk to the stunning redhead driving a T-Bird convert. She got a warning! She always just got warnings!
When I moved to Norfolk after marrying a sailor, every time I left the house alone, I got pulled over.
Always got the same answer to my question of “Why?”
“Oh, just to talk.”
My parents thought I was kidding until they followed me down to bring back my stuff when he deployed and a female Norfolk cop pulled my dad over and hit on him.
Weird town; weirder cops.
Story reads like a Ron White comedy skit: “As it turn out, that night they were stopping everyone stealing a left from the right lane...That’s Profiling!”
