Sounds like the officer didn't buy your version of the facts. That stated, tickets are not admissible in civil court so you can always challege the situation and make a claim of your own. I actually handled a similar case recently and successfully reversed the results with a settlement in my client's favor.

A Personal Injury attorney can investigate this matter and determine all possible responsible parties rather than pursuing on your own. Choose an experienced professional to guide and advise you and evaluate your claim. However, if you are interested in consulting with one of us, you will have to reach out, as attorneys are unable to directly solicit on this forum. There are requirements to follow and deadlines, so do not delay.

Good Morning. If your own auto insurance policy was in effect at the time of this accident it may cover the damages the rental car company is seeking against you. If you have not already done so, immediately report this accident to your auto insurer so that they may begin their own investigation. Provide them with information of any witnesses or other evidence that may aid your version of the facts. Hope this helps and best of luck.
