Yeah, it definitely would - she hired a citizen of that state to perform work in that state, so I can't see a court saying that isn't enough. The choice of law question might get a bit tricky, but as a jurisdictional matter I don't think there's any problem with it.

For what it's worth (nothing), I was a traffic prosecutor for a time, and if your car was the only thing damaged, as long as the officer didn't think you were drunk or being reckless or something I probably would have nonsuited the ticket. A lot of the time, officers are required to write some sort of ticket where there's a crash of some sort, and unless you gave them some reason for concern (or their county's broke and they really really need the revenue - fairly likely in these times) they probably won't be hardassed about it. My advice to people with traffic tickets is: talk to the prosecutor before your case is called. Sometimes they'll be willing to cut you a break, especially if you have a decent driving record. It won't cost you a thing. If they indicate they're going to proceed against you, ask the judge for a continuance so you can hire counsel to represent you. (Disclaimer: my experience with this was in Chicago, so obviously YMMV.)
