Legal Question in Traffic Law in Georgia

Can they do this?

3 Cars were stoped in front of me. I was going about 3 or 5 mph, slowing down to stop. A car hit me from behind (going about 40+ mph). She pushed me into the car in front of me. She hit me hard enough todo $3K worth of damage to my truck, around $4K to the car in front of me, and totaled her car. Well after the police got all their info the cop working the wreck told me I could leave. He didnt give me a ticket (cuz it wasn't my fault). My tail gate was thrown from my truck. So I picked it up placing it in the bed of my s-10. I was still in shock from the wreck and forgot to tie it down. So after the officer told me I could leave, I left. The tail gate fell out about 100ft from the wreck. So I turned around and put it back in the bed. I drove to the store across the street from the wreck to tie the tail-gate in. As I was doing that another cop came to me and said he had to give me a ticket. I asked for what and why and why did he not give me a ticket the first time. He said for following to close but he didnt know why. Can he tell me to leave but when I come back give me a ticket?

The cop that signed the ticket didnt feel it out. He signed it and gave it to another cop and told him to feel it out.
