Should I contest this? I have pictures of the poorly marked intersection and feel I really have a case... If I contest, what else should I say? I was ticketed for turning left from a middle lane that I thought had a "turn or go straight" arrow painted on it. As I turned out of a parking lot and onto the street I eventually got ticketed on, I was following the car in front of me andwas looking up at the green light (on the far left lightpost) vs. down on the arrows on the lane. Since I missed the 1st light, my car ended up sitting on the arrow in my lane. There wasn't a center intersection light with an arrow or sign indicating which lanes could turn. The lane on the opposite / oncoming traffic had a "turn or go straight" arrow, and the crossroad traffic had a "go straight or u-turn permissable" sign posted on it's light that. So I assumed that I was in a combined "turn left or go straight" lane.
