re: Parking Ticket, or bullshite.... let's play lawyer!

Let me break down the legalese for you:

quote:

---

Crosswalk means that part of a roadway at an intersection included within the connections of the lateral lines of the sidewalks on opposite sides of the highway measured from the curbs or, in the absence of curbs, from the edges of the traversable roadway; or any portion of a roadway at an intersection or elsewhere distinctly indicated for pedestrian crossings by lines or other markings on the surface.

The key word here is OR. So a crosswalk is any of these:

1) that part of a roadway at an intersection included within the connections of the lateral lines of the sidewalks, or on opposite sides of the highway measured from the curbs in the absence of curbs, from the edges of the traversable roadway, OR

2) any portion of a roadway at an intersection or

3) elsewhere distinctly indicated for pedestrian crossings by lines or other markings on the surface.

I'd say you don't meet #3, but you certainly meet #2 and #1. Remember, you don't have to meet all three for it be an intersection. Just one of them.

ETA: I find the defendant guilty.
