What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Oklahoma
I was driving on US 70 going west and entered the town of Soper, Oklahoma, which has a speed limit of 45.
I was behind a driver who decided to turn right onto another road. It only has one lane for each side, although a couple of blocks before she plans to turn, another lane is there for you to turn. (basically going from a 2 lane to a three lane with two on our side)
Another vehicle is parked on the lane where she should have turned onto so she was just going to turn from the left lane. She never turned her blinker on or slowed down. When she got side-by-side of where she plans to turn, she just slammed on her breaks and I bumped into her unable to stop in time.
The vehicle that was parked in the road disappeared.
After calling a trooper, I got a ticket for following to closely. I was curious as to what the fine will be and how it will affect my insurance and any other information that will help.
Never had a ticket or been the guilty party of an accident before.
