Sorry to hear this.

It's not Saturns but crappy drivers that we should always be on the lookout for, but I think you knew that.

I would fight this ticket if I was the F-150 owner. Depending on the exact situation, if she was going against the light, she was wrong. I don't see what his age has to do with it, legally, although I realize that a cop will assume a 'kid' probably did something wrong in an accident.

He should contest the ticket in court and try to convince his insurance company to decline liability in the accident, which he can only do if the other driver was cited or at least if neither driver was cited.
He may be able to get a 50/50 liabilty ruling. In any case, he shouldn't just roll over for this, unless he really was at fault in some way.
