The Officer just made a mistake, you try to remember all of those ten codes and violations in your mind. they have to memorize hundreds of them. They're bound to make mistakes once in a while.

No. he can correct this in traffic court and your citation is and will be valid. it does not change the traffic law you apparently violated.

This is better: The Vehicle Code is a commercial business regulation, and applies only to a "motor vehicle" which was defined decades ago as a vehicle which is used for transporting persons or property for hire. This is difficult to prove, though. You have to wade thru a lot of old statues and show the legislative intent when the vehicle statutes were first written. Still, you can make the argument. Also you must testify that you were not hauling freight for hire and you were not carrying paying passengers. Most likely the traffic judge will rule against you and you'll have to appeal it. (Why must you testify? What happened to "they have to prove everything"? Because there is a presumption, based on your use of State plates -- which are issued only for motor vehicles -- that you were engaging in the activity which was licensed, namely, hauling freight for hire or carrying passengers for hire.)
