I today got into a car accident and got a due care ticket for going through a yellow light and hit a person driving taking a left across my lane of traffic in the intersection. He also had a yellow light. the other driver did not get a ticket but i did. i would think he was liable just for the accident. there were no witnesses besides my girlfriend who was with me and she could say the same thing. Is it worth to fight this in court with my honest story? or take the ticket? What is due care? how many points?
Im thinking the cop wanted to pin point this accident on someone and of course it would be a 21 year old being blamed instead of a 30 year old guy in a buisness suite taking notes. Any help from anyone would be much appreciated
