I was leaving a parallel parking space and the owner of the car behind me claimed I hit his car. I left the space, not knowing that anything had occurred, and went around the block after realizing my friend had left her cell phone. A police officer then told me the owner claimed I hit his car and wrote me a ticket for leaving the scene of an accident. My friend was directing me when I was pulling out of the space, and I know I didn't hit the other car. The insurance company also ruled that I had not caused any damage. I have to go to court on Thursday. I want to plead not guilty because I believe there was no accident, and I'm not sure how I can be charged with leaving the scene if nothing actually happened. Any advice?
