you guys have done a great job at clearing things up for me. I am turning this into a lesson for my oldest daughter too. She is 15 and about to enter into her permit. I am trying to allow her to use My mistakes as a learning tool for her.
The thing that didn't make sense at first was that I was going slower than the posted speed limit yet got a ticket.
Then after looking at it closer I saw 0 mph as the safe speed. I thought yea that makes sense if I was at a stop sign or stop light....Yet I was going the flow of traffic.
The other car was slightly damaged and repairs have been completed. I felt really bad for the girl that was driving and called it into my insurance on the scene as we waited for R PD.
I handed it over to her and told her to give the case number and contact info to her insurance.
There were no injuries and no medical claims. The case was closed by my insurance 3 weeks ago.
I wanted to thank everyone that has posted for their time and input. It has helped clear my mind of the confusion.
