And NOW I'm PISSED!

So you know that lovely little accident I was in last week? I got the police report today. Says I did nothing to cause the accident. I had an expired tag. I got a ticket.

Also says the day was clear, road was dry. Other driver was going 45 in a 35 school. There was a warning sign with a flashing light, she was not paying attention. She was distracted. She was not in control of her vehicle. She saw me slowing down, but didn't know I was going to turn (it's really hard to see a person's blinker when you're not looking I guess). Says her car is totaled. Says three people had to go to the hospital. Says it's her fault. Also says
SHE
WAS
NOT
TICKETED!

So *I*, the victim, have to go to court to explain why my tag was expired (five people with whooping cough, one with strep...twice, one with bronchitis that almost went into pneumonia, one having seizures and trying different medications...how could I have POSSIBLY over looked my tag????), but the teenaged driver who wasn't paying attention and had committed several moving violations...she has to explain herself to NO ONE.

crowder and TF, Yeah, I'd have to say that whomever decided this one is not on my list of nice kind descriptive words.

Jaheezus. Figures.

Good luck...is there anyway to petition to have the person ticketed?

No fault state...works with divorce too.

TKW, I've already complained to the Judge Exec. Plus, I'm REQUIRED to go to court for my ticket because there was an accident. While there I am going to point it out to the judge who, I've been told, has a major issue with crazy teen drivers. I'm sure he'll have something to say about her not being ticketed.

Batman, Florida is a no fault state as well. But in Florida she still would have been given a ticket especially because she was speeding in a school zone.
