    The case Thorn is talking about happened in San Diego. about two degrees of separation from me. So its a third hand information.

    Whether or not you get citation and pay a fine is dependent on the officer. Is he determined to issue a citation or not. and the judge who is willing to dismiss the citation or not because you were track standing.

    and hmm... intent of the law --what it is supposed to do
    and the mechanics of the law --which tells when its a violation or what you have do so that you are in compliance.

    The intent here is that everyone must come to a complete stop. the mechanic here is that you put your foot down for three seconds... Their are plenty of lawyers here who can explain all this in very clear detail and how you could use the separation of the intent and the mechanics to "beat" the citation. I'm not a lawyer so I really don't know what I'm talking about.
