What about hiring a lawyer and let them fight your case, traffic lawyers usually aren't to bad or delay the case until your return. But write everything down so you're not recalling it from memory later on.

call and request they move the court date up as you are deploying, cant imagine they would have an issue with that.

I'm not so sure your insurance company is gonna be quick to accept fault on this. I can see it maybe turning into a partial fault situation.
If your light was turning red then so was the Saturn driver's. It's common for people to sit in the middle of intersections waiting to turn left and sometimes the light turns red so they have to go because they are blocking the intersection. Unless he had a protected left turn arrow then you both ran the red, or yellow so I can't see how one person had more right-away then the other. Also, how could they not see you. Lucky it wasn't a head on I guess, good luck.

Well the good news the body shop said they'll be able to get everything fixed and back to perfect condition. I talked to the folks at the police station and down at traffic services downtown, and based on my story, they're gonna get me in front of a judge asap. My insurance company is backing me up at least.

Sorry to hear what happened. But I have to say the title made me chuckle.

In SC if any part of your wheels are across the stop line and the light is still yellow, you have not run a red light. I believe you also have to clear the intersection in a reasonable amount of time. The Saturn never gave you a chance to clear when it turned into you without the right of way.
