I was fully stopped at a red light in a right turning lane. In NC, you can turn right on red. I was creeping forward because my vision was slightly obstructed and then I braked again because I realized it was unsafe to turn. All of a sudden I feel a thud and I’m jerked forward. My coffee in the cup holder flew everywhere — including on me and my suit. I luckily was not burned or injured. When I got out of the car, the cop asked if I was ok and was assessing the damage. He said that it was my fault because I braked suddenly and in an unsafe manner. I disputed this and he said he has the whole thing recorded. He said my insurance will be responsible for the damage and he is filing a report. I know he’s lying but what can I do when it’s his word against mine? Not sure if he’s bluffing about the whole thing being recorded or not.
TL;DR: I was rear ended by a cop at a red light and he’s accusing me of being at fault. It’s essentially his word against mine. What can I do?
