I live in VA. this was at my local comunity college (annandale campus).
it's basically a 2 way street and in the middle of the block is a crosswalk. i didnt think anything of it since there was no pedestrians anywhere in sight. after i passed the crosswalk, a REAL police car (and not campus security) stops me and gives me a ticket for disreguarding a stop sign.
i take it communuity college streets are public street, and not private like in a mall since REAL police were able to give out tickets.
but is the ticket they gave me valid???
THX
Update: on the ticket, the cop wrote "46.2-821 Disregard a stop sign" but there was no stop sign..just the crosswalk. you think i got better than even odds of beating this? i dont want to spend 4 hrs in court for nothing.
