How can I avoid a citation for a Vehicle Code 22350 VC violation?

To avoid a 22350 VC firstly, you’ll want to be as careful and as attentive as possible on the road. However, sometimes peace officers can pull even the best driver over for reasons that are unclear to them. If there is a marked or unmarked car behind you with its lights on, make sure that you pull over as soon as you can do it safely. A peace officer is always the enforcer of the law, so disobeying them and driving away deliberately — and putting someone or yourself at risk — is never going to be the better choice.
