I only was on the median for less than 2 car lengths. When I passed the cop I was legally in the left turning lane. He saw me in his rearview mirror and pulled me over. The worst part is, he missed the guy who literally went around me and into oncoming lanes because I had stopped halfway on the median because I saw the cop.
So let me explain this again, I started pulling out into the median, saw the cop and stopped. Another car behind me got pissed, zoomed around me in oncoming lanes (further to the left) and proceeded back into the left turning lane. The cop pulled me over and not the other guy. He claimed I had gone into oncoming lanes. But he was mistaken. He only fined me for going on the median because I think he realized he got me confused with the other guy, but to explain myself I admitted that I was on the median for about 1 car length. So he ticketed me anyway.
