I received a Failure to Yield ticket from an accident involving myself driving a CDL Vehicle. Should I fight the ticket?
I was pulling out of a parking lot onto a 4 lane road, I checked to the left, to the right, and to the left again and all 3 times the roadway appeared clear for me to pull out. As soon as I started pulling into the road I heard a "scraping" noise and looked over to the right and saw a car with severe damage. Long story short the other driver called the Police and they came out and did their report, issued me a FTY and if I remember correctly they issued the other driver a No Proof of Insurance or No Insurance. Im just wondering if I have a fighting chance of getting this dismissed or at the very least reduced? I really dont want this ticket on my record for 10 years because it was CDL.
