Re: Help: Careless Driving for Minor Bump <$1,000 No Injurie

Calling the police for a rear-end collision, will guarantee the at-fault party a Careless Ticket

The other driver will have to appear in court and provide witness testimony to the accident; if the other driver doesn't appear, the charges will be withdrawn

If the other driver does appear, you can plead down to S. 141 (5) 'Left turn ‑ fail to ...
