FAil to Keep Right 
Place of Occurence
c/o E22 & PARK AVE 
Description

Stopped at a traffic light, just to the left of Rosie Mendez in a pedicab, keeping as far right as I could, scooters came riding the wrong way down Park Ave. Cop told me to move my bike to the sidewalk and gave me the ticket.

Default judgment. I never got any notices until it was too late, because the cop got my name and address wrong, even though I wrote the correct address when I sent in my plea (within 2 weeks of the ticket). An administrative law judge ruled that that is not a sufficient excuse for defaulting. The TVB says there is no way to appeal that ruling.
