Got in a wreck, got ticketed for "general safe driving" violation??

[Eihli]

Ok I was getting off a ramp to merge onto the intestate while it was raining a little harder than a light drizzle. Speed limit on the ramp is 45, I was going 40, I hit a puddle of water near the end of the ramp and start spinning across the interstate. A truck hit me, an 18-wheeler hit the truck, and we all slid into a grassy ditch area in the median and hit another car that had been stuck there that had done the same thing I did 15 minutes prior.

Cars were wrecked pretty bad but nobody got hurt. It feels wrong to complain about something when things turned out so well in a situation like this, but I got a "general safe driving" violation which the cop explained to me was because I was driving too fast for the conditions.
I think that is [censored].

Aren't there situations where you can reasonably judge the conditions to be safe for the speed you are driving and through no fault of your own be wrong? Can't I expect a road to have enough drainage that I won't have to dodge deep puddles of water during a light rain?

Shouldn't the car that was already in the ditch get the same ticket as me even though they made it across the interstate without getting hit?

Like I said I feel bad complaining when things could have gone so bad, but I'm not trying to weasel my way out of a fine, I honestly think I did nothing wrong.

Do I have any chance of having this ticket cleared?
