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

[Eihli]

The road slants down-left and water drains down a cricket. Water pooled on the left of the road and caught my left tire. If they are going to give tickets for not driving on the shoulder of the road to avoid water during a light rain, then city needs to fix the drainage on that road.

However, I'm not going to drive 20 mph every time there is a light rain. I was going well under safe speeds for the amount of water on the roads.
