I understand the law doesn't see it that way, but having everything hinge on contact strikes me as bogus. I'm under the impression that had we made a mistake that caused us to collide with a car, the burden of proof would be on the driver which would also be wrong.
You could testify as to what you heard her say. She may or not deny it or try to explain it away, saying she was in shock, etc. Everything doesn't hinge on contact. Depending on the testimony, that may not even matter.
