What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state? California
A vehicle made a left turn in front of me and I hit it. The CHP report says I was at fault because I was speeding. Posted speed limit was 45. My skids indicate my speed at between 51 and 59 mph. CHP said listed me as primary cause of the accident and that I relinquished my right of way because of my speed. I have heard that CA case law has determined that I only relinquish my right of way if I exceed 20 mph over the speed limit. Does anyone know if this is true and what the case law would be? Thanks.
