That won't matter Dan. We were in California several years ago with all the kids, just got off the plane, rented a car and were looking for the hotel. After we turned left at a light, a motorcycle cop stopped us and gave us a ticket for not stopping for the red light behind the white line at the intersection. The front end of the car must have been over it. Here, there are some traffic lights that have sensors and you HAVE to be over the line for it to know that a car is there and then the light will change, so we tried that as an excuse. Didn't fly. He said we weren't in MI. We couldn't come back for court because we live in MI and the plane fare would have been more than the ticket. I seem to remember that if we tried to do anything besides just pay it, My hubby would have had to go to traffic school. Cali Cops are meanies!
Good luck!
