Melrose Avenue b/w La Brea and Fairfax

Hollywood, CaliforniaDec 10, 20021 Comments

Motorcycle cops regularly patrol this stretch of Melrose Avenue, especially weekend nights. They are notorious for giving tickets for speeding, not stopping for pedestrians, and especially for not having a front license plate.

Comments:
The cops here also ticket for "failure to yield right-of-way to a pedestrian and an umarked crosswalk." What's an "umarked crosswalk", you ask? Just about EVERY SINGLE cross-street on Melrose (between La Brea and Fairfax)! An intersection does NOT need any painted lines, flashing lights, etc. in order for a pedestrian to walk across it at will. In my case, a girl yammering away on her cellphone began strutting out into traffic directly in front of my car at one of these so-called "umarked crosswalks", and sure enough, a cop was there to ticket ME.
