In jurisdictions with which I'm familiar, cops tend not to write tickets for the 'sun was in my eyes' excuse. They can't cite you for being inattentive, driving too fast, or anything else they didn't witness.
The OP needs a lawyer and I'm sure will retain one. And will listen to their advice. Advice garnered here is indeed worthless, but I understand from personal experience the desire to ask anyone and everyone for advice and input. You're faced with a very traumatic personal situation and thrown into a legal situation with which you likely have no prior experience. It's confusing and frightening and the desire to ask for advice is normal. It's also normal to discard all that advice and do whatever your lawyer says. When you look back on it, you realize the folly of the advice seeking, but it really may serve a cathartic rather than informational purpose.
