Stockton, CA asked in Criminal Law for California

Q: Is it lawful for a police officer to arrest me after I’ve cleared this ticket ?(24004cvc)

I was given this ticket back in June, I stopped operating my vehicle as told from the police officer, after receiving my ticket in the mail, I paid the bail to clear the ticket. Now last weekend I was pulled over by the SAME cop, without even asking for my license or checking my record and clearance of ticket, he arrested me, impounded my vehicle and I was in the county jail until later that night is this lawful at all?
