Sounds like she didn't actually get hit, so there's no way for the police
officer to know whether she swerved to save herself or simply overreacted.
I got side-swiped[1] on my left side once, and the other driver tried to
claim I hit him. Until I pointed out the scuff marks on my right tires and
the right curb, the cop was ready to believe him, as I was a very young
driver at the time.
[1] Side-swiped: Two cars going the same direction clash right-door of left
car to left-door of right car. For those here possibly unfamiliar with the
idiom.
