My husband was driving an 18 wheeler in Tenn. on I-75. Traffic was moderately heavy with traffic in all 3 lanes. He came upon a city of Knoxville police officer with a car pulled over on the right hand side of the highway in the emergency lane writing a ticket (the officer was out of his car). He could not merge to the center lane due to traffic.
The police officer chased him down and gave him a ticket for "failure to yeild the right of way to an emergency vechicle". I am curious how this can be? I know this in in TN and not GA. How was he suppose to avoid the "failure to yeild" if he could not merge? Is this ticket worht fighting in court? It is 4 points on his DL and a good driving record is imperative for a good driving job. :
