i was in a rear-end collision and received a fail to reduce speed ticket in Illinois. I was in the right turn lane with the sign that says ok to turn on red. The driver in front of me came to a complete stop, as did i, then she pulled forward like she was going to go. i looked left, did not see a car approaching, and pressed the gas but the car in front of me had only pulled up further instead of going.
