Tailgate
Not sure if I am posting in the right place. Is this for the defending of tickets only ?
I was rear ended 16 hours ago and it was immediately reported to Police.
Due the the minimal damage, it was suggested that my insurance deductible would be more expensive than buffing the damage.
The officer said he would be giving the other driver a ticket, but, I did not see that exchange happen. How do I ensure that there in fact was a ticket given to the person who hit me ?
The officer did provide me with an incident number. Should I have obtained a copy of my statement or the other drivers statement ?
I do not remember being asked to sign a statement and am fairly certain I did not sign or date anything. I do know I was asked if I could read the statement the officer took from me, and I did, but I do not believe I was requested a signature.
Should I go directly to the police station and ask for confirmation that a ticket has in fact been issued ? The Courthouse ? Contact the MTO directly ? There was little damage to the vehicles, but I still have a head ache from hitting the back of my head on the seat, is that something my insurance company should be made aware of ?
