Who knows? Why would she? You're the young, irresponsible one. You're the one the officer put the blame on. As for the 45mph comment, she had just been in an accident that was your fault. She was confused and shaken up a bit, obviously. She thought the officer asked how fast she thought you were going. That alone will not get you out of the ticket.
Good luck though.. your lawyer's gonna have to work his ass off. Hope your Civic's doing ok.
