What is the name of your state? georgia
It was heavy traffic on the highway, so every car is a stop state. Then when the car proceeded..his car just roll back and hit my hood. I left a good room between my car and his old, flatbed truck. He told me that his engine died or his starter didn't, and he didn't push the clutch.
So when the cop came, he never question me what happened and went directly to the the guy who hit me. Cop asked if his truck is damaged..and he replied "no damage". So the cop said told him he would give me a ticket for following too closely and it was up to the guy who hitted me if he wanted to file a report or not (since his truck has no damage)...is that illegal?
But I told the cop that he roll back and hit me...so the cop said "ok, then..you both get tickets...Now, that you both have tickets, you both have the right to remain silence ..blah blah..
So the cop assumed i rear ended him, but I was never in motion. And the guy who hit me admited he roll back and hit me..so he got a ticket, too.
What should I do? Should I go to court and tell my side since I am driving my dad's car for that day and I am not on his insurance. Or should I just pay the ticket and not risk it with insurance? Also, the guy that hitted me is from Alabama and I don't know if he going to go to court or not..does that make win?
Plus, the guy that hitted me told his insurance company that I rear ended him instead. Which is a lie. I think the cop gave him hints to do that.
Help ! Thank you in advance!
