My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: California
I received a speeding ticket for 75 mph on a 50 mph road. However, instead of citing me for VC 22349a:
(a) Except as provided in Section 22356, no person may drive a vehicle upon a highway at a speed greater than 65 miles per hour.
I was cited for VC 22350:
No person shall drive a vehicle upon a highway at a speed greater than is reasonable or prudent having due regard for weather, visibility, the traffic on, and the surface and width of, the highway, and in no event at a speed which endangers the safety of
persons or property.
Is this a mistake? If I contest on the grounds that my speed was safe given the conditions even though it was above 65 can I still be convicted under 22349a?
