is the ticket still valid if...? okay i just got a ticket on king george for speeding while i was passing (the officer can't tell me how fast exactly i was going. he said 70ish 80ish and convince me to pay the ticket early) and now that when i look at the ticket my last name is spelled wrong the registered owner's last name is spelled wrong now is the ticket is valid? |
:gotsearch Refer to shaded areas. |
The spelling of your last name might be something to argue, but I have heard JP's decide that if the driver's license number and birthdate were correct that was enough to identify you properly and refuse to dismiss because of a misspelling in the name. |
And on the other side of coin, a friend of mine once got a ticket dismissed because his name was spelled wrong. His statement to the JP: "This name... is not me." |
Quote:
I could imagine the JP asking "well, was it you that was driving?" Then he would be SOL, or he could have lied. |
The logical answer would be, "Sure, I might have been driving somewhere, sometime, maybe even right there... I might even have been speeding, or not... but I'm not the person named on this ticket." |
umm why would you show up to dispute the ticket then if it wasnt for you? |
If a cop handed you a ticket that was for someone else, wouldn't you dispute it? |
