Carless Driving On Turn
So basically, on NYE's I was taking my cousin and her friends to a party. We missed the exit, so I decided to take the first available turn onto a street to go back. Unfortunately, the first turn (a cemetery) was concrete blocked off. Being stuck, I looked around and reversed, however, I got hit by a speeding car in the middle of my front and rear quarter panels on my passenger side. I was able to drive the car (which was now in the middle of the road) to the side, and quickly checked how my passengers were doing and how the other driver was doing. While speaking to him, I did notice that he seemed rattled, and I assumed it was because of the accident. As i got my information, he attempted to cross the street almost getting hit by oncoming cars. I quickly then made a call to 911 with the suspicion that he was intoxicated. The cop came and arrested the other driver and then gave me an ticket for careless driving.
I was wondering if there is anything I can do to appeal this ticket.
SIDENOTE: I have been driving for the past 4 years.
