I'm told that today the officer always writes a ticket and when your in a single car accident you get a ticket. It's a way of assigning official fault to someone to make insurance claims and potential legal claims easier. I had a single car accident while slowing to avoid traffic on a bridge that happened to have ice on it. No where else had ice that morning and I had no reason to suspect that bridge did either. Same charge--driving too fast for conditions. Turns out traffic was stopping because 2 other cars had spun out on the other side of that bridge. Neither of them hit anyone else either but the officer said everyone was getting tickets. He further stated if I showed up in court they'd drop the ticket. Not quite that easy. The judge wanted a letter from my insurance company saying they'd paid me for my claim and I had to return to court a couple months later to show him that letter before he dropped the ticket. Why they cared if the insurance company paid me I don't know but I do know not to argue with a judge. Even though I didn't get a ticket my insurance rates went way up as rate increase is based on how much they pay out. Good luck.
