good for you, OP, for doing the right thing! but this just proves even more so that 99% of cops are assholes. fight him though; you would easily win. a woman was hit by a car! it's his duty to help her, not the general public (even though it's great when people like the OP do). what the hell was he doing giving out parking tickets when she's on the ground in serious pain? he could get in a lot of trouble for that. and another thing; where was the person who hit her? did he just take off? f yours and the woman's lives.
Fight the ticket and you will win.
Eh. Cry more :P Pay the ticket.
booring
yeah cops can be major dicks sometimes. i saw a car accident on the highway once and stopped to make sure the people were okay and i stayed there with them until the police and everyone arrived, luckily no one was hurt... but when the first cop got on the scene he told my friend and i that we had to leave immediately... even though we were witnesses to the accident and saw the other driver take off. but for all we know... i could have been one of those meter maids or something who issued the ticket. and wow #6, i am soo sorry :(
Just take the ticket to court. If the cop doesn't show up, and they usually don't, it gets annulled.
that sucks. but you did the right thing
i would agree if it were true, there is no way you actually get a parking ticket if your next to an accident.

There is usually a process by which you can contest the ticket. You MIGHT be able to get out of it since it was an emergency.
wow at least u did the right thing
