How would you pleaded ?

On May 2nd, around 1:30 am, I was traveling on Center Point East, going toward Ashford Dunwoody Rd to go home. When I came up to the corner of Ashford Dunwoody, I made a right hand turn. At the right hand corner I saw 2 Dunwoody police officers, who had made a traffic stop, about 25 yards away in the right hand lane. So I turned into the middle inside lane and reduced my speed to 25mph, because there were 2 other cars that were now traveling in the far left hand lane going in the same direction as I was. Both police cars had their blue lights flashing and the other 2 cars headlights made it hard to tell if it was safe to go into the third lane. Since I was not certain it was safe, I stayed in the lane I originally turned into and continued to drive at 25 mph.



After I passed the police officers, they drove out and pulled me over. When the police stopped me, they indicated that I should have taken the third lane even though I had slowed down to 25 mph. I feel that I was in the right in making the judgment due to the obstructed view created by both the police’s lights and the headlights of the other cars. I couldn’t see due to the brightness to feel I could move over safely, and when I was questioned as to why I did not change lanes, I told the officer the above reason.



I know I am a civilian driver, but as I understand the reading of the law, it states, “if a lane change under paragraph (1) of this subsection would be impossible, prohibited by law, or unsafe, [I am] to reduce the speed of the motor vehicle to a reasonable and proper speed for the existing road and traffic conditions, which speed shall be less than the posted speed limit, and be prepared to stop.”



It would have been unsafe to turn into the lane that traffic was traveling faster than I was, as both cars passed me, and I was traveling slow enough in my lane that I could have stopped safely if the police needed me to.How would you pleaded ?
Did they charge you with something? It sounds like your choices were prudent and driven by good judgment, so what's their beef, besides looking for some action? The new push to keep the lanes clear alongside emergency vehicles can only go so far, as evidenced by your argument. They sound like a-hs.
