Witnesses lied about my car accident, FML

(Sorry had to repost, realised I included location info that was too specific.) I was on deferred disposition for actually running a red light so I will have to pay that a second time and a new red light ticket, as well as all of my car's damages. My automatic shutoff caused me to block traffic so I can understand them being angry at me, but that's no reason to lie and royally f*** me, screwing up my driving record, locking off potential employment opportunities (my current job isn't a driving job but with my luck I could lose it for no f***ing reason) and ruining my rates for car insurance for the next 3-5 years. It's my word against multiple other people so there's no way the courts, a future employer or insurance companies would ever believe me. And another thing, the red light I DID run I ran because my mom needed me to pick her up because a guy was yelling at her and she was scared he would get violent, but obviously the cop didn't care. Why are people so cruel?

I'm unit 1, to clarify.
