If the truck was obstructing your view and therefore was responsible for the accident , then you shouldn't have received the demerit points and fine. Obviously the police et al don't think so though. I wouldn't bother going to court if I were you unless you can't afford to lose the points, from what you've said the chance of success is rather small.

I didn't do legal studies, but I'm going into week 4 of foundations of law so I thought I'd just pop in here :D.

thanx for ur advice

they said that they have to treat the truck like a building or something like that which i think is ridiculous and confusing but oh well
