HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA It is NOT true. 1. Carpool lane - 1st time $1068.50 starting 7/1/07 (The $271 posted on the highway is old). Don't do it again because 2nd time is going to be double. 3rd time triple, and 4th time license suspended-Fiction! (not true) In 2007, the recommended fine for a first time car pool violation was $380. Repeat offenders can expect to pay more, but nothing near the amounts represented in this email.
2. Incorrect lane change - $380. Don't cross the lane on solid lines or intersections-Fiction! (not true) The Uniform Bail and Penalty Schedule said $134 for a typical infraction.
3. Block intersection - $485-Fiction! (not true) The Uniform Bail and Penalty Schedule said $175. 4. Driving on the shoulder - $450-Fiction! (not true) The Uniform Bail and Penalty Schedule said $134.
5. Cell phone use in the construction zone. - Double fine as of 07/01/07. Cell phone use must be "hands free" while driving-Fiction! (not true) There was no law in California during 2007 restricting the use of cell phones in the car. There was such a law going into effect in July, 2008. There was no "double fine" as of 7/1/07 because there was no law in effect regarding cell phones. The new California law does not mention construction zones although penalties for traffic violations are higher if they occurred in a highway construction or maintenance area.
6. Passengers over 18 not in their seatbelts - both passengers and drivers get tickets-Truth! The California Mandatory Seat Belt Law requires all passengers to use some kind of restraint. Children under 6 and weighing less than 60 pounds are required to be in "specified child passenger restraint system," typically a car seat. Everybody older than 6 must wear seat belts. At this writing the fines range from less than $100 for a first offence to more than $300 when it's kids who are not buckled in. According to the California Highway Patrol any adults in a vehicle who are not wearing seatbelts are subject to citation, not just the driver. The driver will be held accountable for any children not restrained.
7. Speeders can only drive 3 miles above the limit-Fiction! (not true) The speed limit is the speed limit. There is no legal definition allowing a driver to go 3 miles per hour above that. 8. DUI = JAIL (Stays on your driving record for 10 years!)-Truth! At the time of this writing a first offense for driving under the influence in California results in anywhere between 96 hours and 4 months in jail. a fine, and a six-month suspension of the license. Those are the court penalties. There are separate penalties to the Department of Motor Vehicles. As of January 1, 2007 a driving under the influence conviction will be on a person's record for 10 years. 9. As of 07/01/07 cell phone use must be "hands free" while driving. Ticket is $285. They will be looking for this like crazy - easy money for police department-Fiction! (not true) By law all drivers in California must be using hands-free cell phones as of July 1, 2008. The fine was $20 for the first offense and $50 for each subsequent offense. The exceptions are for emergency use, drivers of emergency vehicles, and drivers of commercial vehicles can use the push-to-talk type wireless phones until July 1, 2011.
If you need to know the facts, you need to contact the local police department. Someone else wrote to make rumors for anyone to believe.
