You broke the law because you turned from the lane for going straight ahead. Don't try to manipulate the situation by saying that you crossed some white line...

I never claimed I was innocent which is why I’m waiving my right to contest the ticket and paying it.
In China you are allowed to cross dashed white lines but not solid white lines. It also depends on each intersection as there are different cameras for different violations (speed, yielding to pedestrians, red lights, etc) and each camera is owned by a different department (public security bureau, traffic bureau, urban management bureau etc)
To me, it sounded like you were trying to prove that you hadn't done anything wrong (by the way, it was more of a warning than a ticket... 😉).
They changed their mind and decided to turn. Perfectly normal. Happens all the time
