What is the name of your state? WA
I was coming down a steep hill, doing probably 15 in a 25... there is a traffic light at the bottom of the hill. I hit the car in front of me when he came to a sudden stop. There was not any damage to his car, but my 93 Acclaim acquired a bit of damage from where it hit the SUV. Anyhow, the ticket was written for "speed too fast to avoid collision". This is not the case. If anything I was following too closely. More to the truth I was late to break. What are my chances of contesting this? I don't know why the police officer did not cite me for "following too close". There were no skid marks or anything to indicate that my speed was too fast. Thoughts???
