[QUOTE="swoosh_stang, post: 5061195, member: 46742"] Based on the picture posted by the op, neither the op nor the truck were on the freeway, they were required to merge together, then to merge onto the freeway. Without having pictures of the signs at this particular interchange, you cannot tell which lane (the op's or the truck's) had the right-of-way. There are many occurences in designs of this type (which are most common in the central portion of the country, NE, KS, OK, TX) where if the traffic loading is heavier on the op's lane than the truck's lane, a yield sign would be placed on the trucks lane. I have seen this and have in fact designed a couple of interchanges this way. There are only three people that know the actual situation here, the op, the truck driver and the cop. Should the op have gotten a ticket, yeah probably, should the cop have let him off, maybe, but the op was speeding. I do know a few highway patrolmen, and most I've talked to say they don't even look twice if the violators are under limit+15mph. Maybe the guy thought it looked more dangerous than the op did. Regardless, you were speeding, and I wish you good luck in getting your ticket taken care of. [/QUOTE]
