Should i have just taken the ticket!!!!

I'm sure everyone on the forum will appreciate the funny side of this well maybe not Soc!
Was in town last night and pulled in outside the palace as i spotted a car park space that would require a "messy" U turn. I waited until the coast was clear and did my U turn. Just as i do the U turn naturally the next car coming up the road was Traffic Corps who wound down his passenger side window and gave me a lesson on the rules of the road................................. Just as I was saying 'Yes sir three bags full sir' he then gave me the speech of "imagine me flying down the road here in pursuit of another vehicle, the last thing i would expect would be a "little Audi TT" pulling out from the wrong side of the road!!!
It was difficult but i managed to agree with him and apologise but then spent the whole night cursing him!!!
