It was on my son's birthday that I was cited, so that would be 4/93. I seem to recall the entire process took about a year.
The technicality still exists. The vehicle code section the law is under makes it a fix it ticket. But you would have to go to court and do a proper cross-examination of the cop to take that route. I suspect that CHP are hep to it, but a city cop, not likely.
