My question involves a traffic citation from the state of: California
I received a ticket for running a stop sign. Upon reviewing the "Notice to Appear," an incorrect vehicle code number is cited. It lists code #21453(A), which deals with running a red light, not running a stop sign.
According to my research, the correct code for a stop sign violation should have been 22450. This was a residential area/street with absolutey no traffic signal.
Does the fact that the wrong vehicle code is cited make my contesting the ticket by Written Delaration a strong case, as there is no traffic signal at this intersection/on this street, or is this a mistake that is no big deal? The officer did note in his verbiage about running the stop sign.
Looking forward to your responses and experiences.
Thank you.
