    Default Disobeying a Traffic Control and Failing to Provide Proof of Insurance

    My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: California

    Okay, here's the story.

    Made a left turn from a parking lot that said, "No left turns." Okay. Got it. Guilty... I accept the 21461(a) - vc21461(a)... but the citing officer also added "No evid. of financial responsibility" 16028(a) - vc16028(a) as I was pulling up my information on my phone, which in California is a legal form of proof of insurance. The officer, a CHP, said something about the information had to be in the form of an email not on my insurance provider's app. He stated I could just appear before the judge with the proof of insurance in hand and have it written off.

    So, I got the summons in the mail, I'm now out of state for work, and there's an option to pay everything in full... over $1100, or trial by declaration.

    Part of the trial by declaration process is sending a check for the full amount, along with the documents proving I had insurance, along with an additional $25 for the processing of the item I am contesting. But, what happens if they do write off the 16028(a) - vc16028(a), will I get something in the mail and have to send yet another check for the illegal turn?

    In terms of the proof of insurance, go to the court, present proof of insurance, pay the administrative fee and get the ticket dismissed.

    If you were not cited for the illegal turn, odds are you won't be. The officer won't be monitoring the other ticket.
