Who is to blame in texas car accident?

I was driving on the lane next to the exit ramp lane. I checked if any one was in the exit ramp lane and no one was in it only a car behind me. so I turn my signal light on and start to turn and when I am about more than half the lane in both my mother and my brother yell %26quot;watch out%26quot; and out of the corner of my eye I see a car speeding pass me and he managed to clip me on my right front panel just infront of the tire left rear side. When we parked our cars we met each other and he said %26quot; I am sorry bro I saw you signal but I thought I could make it%26quot; but then when the cops came he changed his story. He says that he had turned to the exit ramp and passed me then I turned then hit him. Think about this if he was in back of me, how in the world was he able the pass me with out speeding because the speed limit of the main lane is 60mph and the exit ramps is 50mph. I was going about 60mph before turning to the exit ramp so if he says he had passed me how can he explain appearing in front of me with out speeding remember he was in back of me and if he turned to the exit ramp he had to have started to reduce his speed. Still the cops gave me a ticket for an unsafe lane change and he gave the other driver a ticket for not having a license and it was not suspended or expired nor revoked he just had never taken the test before. I want to add for your better understandment that my car was insured but I was not covered by it. and he also did not have insurance. I also understand how it appeard to the police the did not see the crash so when they arrived all they saw was where the damage was and said that I was at fault. given what I just explained do I have a reasonable case to fight? The other driver either saw my signal but thought he could make it or was not paying attention and managed to get away with it becuase had spead up and I manage to hit him from the rear side????



also he said that he had passed me but that is not true because I would have heard and seen him passing and this is why... he had one of those annoying mufflers that people put on fast Streetcars sort of like %26quot;the fast and the furious%26quot; so I would have heard him because they attract your attention and plus my car does not have A/C so I had the windows down so I would have heard him even better also my mother and my brother would have seen him too...he was behind me when I was turning and I was already on the exit ramp when we crashed.

.

Plus the metal from my bumper where we crashed has the metal tearing towards the front of my car not dented inward, this proves that he passed me and when he hit my right panel his car riped my bumpers metal outward toward the front so if he says that i hit him, the metal would have been dented inward instead of outward right?

ALSo can an officer give me that unsafe lane change ticket even though he did not witness the supposed violation???????????

.

he was also exiting the highway and yes he did admit(TO the Cops) that he was in back of me and turned towards the exit ramp but it had to be done illegaly though right.

CAN I win this in court?

Civil court that is....



he wasn't already in the lane as I started to turned. he had stayed in the main lane while I was turning and I stopped chenking for cars because I was in the lane already when he came from behind me and passed me and managed to hit me.



the reason my mother and brother yelled watch out was because they are the ones that heard him going pass me not because he was next to me and I was going to hit him.

The state of texas has a proportional fault claim that says even IF I turned to him he was the one that caused the crash since he was not giong at a safe speed so if he was going the speed limit the crash would have never happened. making him 51%or more at fault right?Who is to blame in texas car accident?I'd say you could fight it in Court. TAKE PICTURES OF THE DAMAGE. You should have already but you better do it now. You will need pictures of the damage to your car in Court. Also don't get it fixed if you don't have to before going to Court. That way you can show the pictures are accurate. From how you describe it HE hit YOU and the damage shows it. Oh and the Judge will be leaning more toward you since he was driving without EVER getting a license. He has never proven he knows how to drive, which looks worse then an irresponsible driver(one who lost their license) who proved they could drive. Make sure you are very respectful of the Judge in a Civil Court though.Who is to blame in texas car accident?Not sure, but considering that he got in the lane and was there when you hit him, you might be at fault here.Who is to blame in texas car accident?my friend this is what they make courts and judges for//take this inj writng to the court and dispute the ticket//tell the judge what happened//the pd has to testify ask him the questions that he testifys too that you ran into him rather than he squeeze in if you are as articulate as you are now you can beat this and win//ergo unlicensed driver//does he know the rules??
