Legal Question in Traffic Law in Georgia

I made a right turn onto a two lane highway, turning into the right lane. There were multiple police cars on the shoulder at the intersection and i was cited for the Georgia Move Over Law even though the law states that I have to merge into the right lane. What is the best defense?

By your own statement, you violated the move over law, which supercedes other rules of the road, so based on your post, unless you left out facts, you don't have a defense. Since the fines are hefty, see a lawyer about possible ways to approach this in the particular court involved.
