re: What's the most absurd ticket you've ever received ?

Improper use of the turn lane when I was 17.

I was on a highway (2 lanes each direction wiht a middle turn lane) in my hometown approaching a major intersection where i was going to turn left. I'm maybe 100 yards or so from the intersection and get over into the turn lane and approach the light. Everything is good so I turn and when I look in my rearview there's lights behind me. Come to find out I go a ticket for getting into the turn lane "too early".

That was pretty bogus.
