    Unhappy Failure to Yield at a Stop Sign (Hit Another Car)

    My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: Ohio (I live in MA)

    Hello, I was driving my father's car (he was in the car) and I don't know what happened but I stopped at the stop sign, but I slowly kept moving forward because I didn't know if I was suppose to go straight or turn and I hit another car. I had a stop sign, while the other car didn't.

    Here is a small diagram of the exact situation:

    So, yes it was my fault, so I'm really nervous right now. I really have no idea what was going on in my head at that time. Maybe the fact that I thought the other car had a stop might have contributed to me moving, but I don't know. Luckily, no one was hurt at all, but some minor damages to my car and the other car.

    Here is the question:
    The officer issued me a citation for failure to yield for right-of-way and I have to go to juvenile court. I'm really nervous right now, because this the first this has happened to me.

    So please tell me what will happen to me because of the accident. I'm almost in tears right now.
