Fight that citation! No way it will stick because the cop didn't see a damn thing. I don't know if you know this or not, but the party that gets the ticket is always found at fault by the insurance co., even your own. You were stopped when hit, that makes it the other drivers fault, period. You might want to get hold of the car dealer also as your witness. I would of told that cop to go have another donut, what a jerkoff.

Glad you both are OK. Talk to a lawyer, or at least the prosecutor prior to the hearing. I am sure you can work that ticket out. If the witness does not show, it will probably be dismissed.
Let us know the outcome and post pictures of the ride once it is repaired. One of those before and after shots. . .

Did you say the other driver had a suspended license. That alone is a good defense in some jurisdictions. Most street cops hate responding to crash scenes and if they are of that vein, you don;t get their best work.
Is that F&S in the background of your photo?

if you were stopped, you did in fact yield to oncoming traffic... in my opinion that lady should have been cited for inattentive or reckless driving.
if you do talk to the prosecutor, tell them that you were stopped and the lady ran into you and that you intend to plead not guilty and take it to trial, if your state allows that.
remember, they have to prove you guilty and the prosecuting attorney knows that, it may not even make it to court.
