That is perhaps the weakest and silliest excuse for a traffic violation I have ever heard (and I've heard some really dumb ones). If you tried it, the judge is going to ride you like a pony.

If a flash/reflection of a light is enough to cause you to fail to drive safely, you should surrender your driver's license. There are lots of lights everywhere that could trigger your claimed traffic ptsd.

I've been driving for two months. Honestly, fair.

There are far, far more difficult and dangerous things you will encounter driving. Many. Every day. Most intersections.

Keep your head in the game, focus on what is important and be safe.

Serious recommendation: If you qualify (age limit), sign up for "Tire Rack's Street Survival School". Costs almost nothing. You will leave the day a far better, factually more aware and better driver with some serious car control skills that can save your life. The car control exercises are incredibly valuable and you'll get great time feeling your car lose traction (and then you'll regain it) in a safe, consequence-free environment.
