Need members help determining car accident
10-04-2013, 09:42 AM
I need the Roosh V members help. Just got off the phone with my car insurance and bitch on the phone says she doesnt see my point of view
I got into an accident and got a ticket for being left of center. I drew in mspaint a quick mock up. Pic 1 is how the street is, Pic 2 is what the cop thinks what happened which is why he give me the ticket
My court date is next week and I was going to fight it but now I have doubt when my own insurance company says I dont have a good case
Here is my main argument. My car has 2 impact points. One in front and one in rear, His only has one which is in front. If I was left of center meaning in his lane I would only have my front side damage. The fact that I have two impacts means my car was at an angel facing inwords
I have attached 3 pics. 1 pic is the other drivers front, other 2 pics are my front and my rear.
I truely think I was not at fault but if the majority of people think I am then I will see if cop isnt present and do not guilty, but if he is I will just say guilty and get on with my day.
Let me know if you have any other questions

Quit yer whining. Looks to me like you were in the other guys lane and pulling back into your lane when you got hit.

^^ Thanks for your brilliant insight.
OP, unfortunately, by your drawing, it looks as if you were across the center line (probably why you got a ticket). You are going to have a difficult time explaining that. I can see why the insurance is hesitant to side with you. I wish you luck, however.

I get where you're coming from, but he's pretty clearly at fault. I'm as anti-authoritarian as they come and if there was any way to get him out of this I'd be the first to lend a hand but...
I think he's pretty fucked.

Mike CF is 100% right. I'm no claims adjuster but from the diagram, it's pretty obvious that you were in his lane.
My advice? Delay, delay, delay. Motion for continuance, get a new date. Holidays are coming up: Officer may have vacation so they'll push it back even further. Tell them the first date they give you is not good b/c a relative died of cancer out of the country. Postpone again b/c you need to find counsel, be creative.
Look for any errors on your ticket, it's your only chance. I blew a red light in front of cop, got it tossed out in district that has a 65% conviction rate on a technicality.

O.P.:
If you answer two questions for me, I think I can provide you with a response to your original post.
1. The officer who charged you did not witness any part of the accident, right?
2. Did your insurance company pay for the damages to the other vehicle?

Look into whether or not you should plead 'no contest' instead of guilty. Consult an attorney of course.

You messed up by telling the police/insurance/whoever that you were in the other guys lane.
Next time, the other guy was in your lane, fool.
