All very interesting details ... for you, but it all comes down to the big issue: you did not have the patience to wait behind the cop for the light to change and received a ticket. You will lose in court. Pay the fine and move on.
Not at all interesting..to you. If so bored, why reply? Others are interested and want updates. They've said so. You can bugger off...
Rt turn on red is legal in Tx.
I was patient and did wait. You don't know I'll lose either.
Well, I guess I somehow got the wrong impression when I read what you wrote in your very first post:

So I'm off the saddle, left foot on the pedal, right foot on the ground, moving slowly forward. I move past him, rt foot on pedal, move to the saddle and immediately turn right onto the shoulder, well to the right of the white line.
I go about 20'. He immediately turns on his siren, pulls onto the shoulder, lights a flashing, exits his vehicle, comes up to me and is just indignant. YOU DIDN'T SEE THAT RED LIGHT? WHY DIDN'T YOU STOP?
Try changing your story in court and it won't go well ...
And please excuse me if I decline your invitation to "bugger off."
