OK, here is the situation. On the traffic light I turn left into second (middle) lane (this is 3 lane road, and the cop called the lanes 3-2-1 starting from the side walk). At that particular junction I always have been doing that because in some three-four hundred feet there is a highway entrance and if you get into the first (farthest from sidewalk) lane it is often hard to change the lane as people start flying there like crazy.
One Sunday I did not pay attention to a cop hanging in the third (closest to the sidewalk) lane and did the same (i.e. got into a second lane). If I were to get into the 1st one, at that time of the day the sun would be right in my eyes if I start looking to my right in order to change the lane for the one I needed. The cop gave me a ticket saying "Failure to signal from first to third lane. No right turn signal". To me this sounds like completely different violation and has nothing to do with what I did. Do I have a case here?
Best, M
