Traffic ticket question?

The cop wrote down the wrong driver's license number, is the ticket still valid?

Thanks in advance

I would say, "Yes." Personally, I would not test the officer's error.

"i certify under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct..." blah blah blah.

Okay, let's embellish a bit here. Just for fun, let's say . . . You were driving 100 mph in a 25 mph school zone and a cop pops you for speeding. Simply because the officer wrote down the wrong driver's license number doesn't get you a free pass.

Perhaps, he issued the ticket to the wrong person . . . Your evil twin?

Personally, I would say be responsible and pay up. That is what I tell my daughter and son. If the officer is trying to pull a fast one on you, that's a different story.

If you deserved the ticket for whatever reason and are trying to benefit from the officer's mistake . . . Good luck!

LOL...***** no! Why would I want to do that? What a waste! But don't get me wrong, if I only had a GED or an uncompleted Junior College degree, law enforcement would be PERFECT.

By the way....Cru....What kind of educational background do you have?

That's funny, that's not what you told me before. You said you applied for a law enforcement position and got rejected.

That's OK, I'm sure your job as Sales Manager for a racing themed park is much more rewarding.

Better than being a babysitter at a jail cell.
