What is an 801? And why the F would they want to wait to cite anyone if they broke the F'ing law??

Its actually 21801 of the California Vehicle Code
21801. (a) The driver of a vehicle intending to turn to the left or to complete a U-turn upon a highway, or to turn left into public or private property, or an alley, shall yield the right-of-way to all vehicles approaching from the opposite direction which are close enough to constitute a hazard at any time during the turning movement, and shall continue to yield the right-of-way to the approaching vehicles until the left turn or U-turn can be made with reasonable safety.
(b) A driver having yielded as prescribed in subdivision (a), and having given a signal when and as required by this code, may turn left or complete a U-turn, and the drivers of vehicles approaching the intersection or the entrance to the property or alley from the opposite direction shall yield the right-of-way to the turning vehicle.

You got too much time on you hands to have all the time -vs feet thing figured out..
But, it is cool info to know. The BMW driver was obviously very lucky.
How is remember something form one of many physics and dividing 40/88 ~ 4/9s having too much time on my hands?

Three witnesses that I talked to, said the rear of my vehicle was in the air pretty good, they expected me to start rolling :yuk: got lucky I guess, turned toward the roll and it dropped back down
I would attribute that to boat driving experience..

I guess they feel someone has been through enough and will mail it to them, but one of the sheriff's said no way, save the people in the office some work
