Distracted for 1 second...
Took my eye off the road for 1 second and rear ended a Navigator making an illegal U turn. Of course, the cops summoned me for following too close. Thank God nobody hurt. Lesson learned.
** Update ** Cop just called me back. A witness called in with dash cam footage. Not my fault. Last edited by ltcol_king; 02-06-2018 at 07:48 PM. |

Thanks all! And yes, a thoughtful witness with a dash cam saved the day for me. The cop said the video clearly showed the lady attempted a left turn (or u turn) from the right turn lane. Crossed right in front of me. I hit her left rear bumper almost perpendicular to my direction of travel.
