My step daughter was in a collision in the middle of an intersection. No cameras, no witnesses, no other vehicles than the two.
Police come along, ask her a bare minimum of questions. "Did you have a green light?" "Yes, I did." "Okay."
Walk over to the other driver, and talk to him, come back less than three minutes later. "The other driver said he definitely had a green light. I am issuing you a citation for failure to obey a traffic control signal."
That fell apart very quickly when we appealed it to court. "Definitely" in a statement adds nothing to the reasonable doubt equation.
