Traffic Lane Violations: CVC 21752d but Was Driving in Center Turn Lane

My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: California

I was driving southbound down a 2-lane residential road that has a center turn lane (solid yellow lines with dashed yellow lines on inside). I swerved to avoid hitting the car driving in front of me making a sudden right turn and ended up briefly in the center turn lane. Officer on northbound lane sees me in center turn lane and cites me for 21752(d).

Since I did swerve into the center turn lane without making a turn, I am technically in the wrong, but the citation is not for that. My question is whether this is a valid citation considering that I was NOT driving on the left side of the roadway and I was NOT passing the car? I'm considering contesting by written declaration.

A secondary question is if I do a Trial by Written Declaration, would I still have the opportunity to avoid points through traffic school if the judge finds me guilty?

Thanks!!
