The bigger question is if $500 is worth his time dealing with this. This has no record, no demerits, no impact on insurance. It's purely a cash grab. I would just pay it and move on, not worth my time.
Exactly.
OP, this isn’t about the lanes and your other arguments that simply won’t work. It’s the activity being done and whether it was stunting. You can get a stunting ticket for a legal activity if it’s done in a manner likely to cause a distraction, startle, etc. and you seem to be missing this. It’s not about legality of lane splitting. It’s if it could cause distraction, startle, interference, etc. That’s what you need to go after. Now that I’ve repeated it a few times in different ways and others have said the same, does it make sense?
To reemphasize, drop the legality of lane splitting. You’re barking up the wrong tree, man.
