The site the OP maintains (if you can call it that, as it's extremely difficult to find information) claims that, legally, you do not need to prove otherwise, the police need to prove to the judge that the picture taken is really of you. In practice, of course, a mean judge could take the word of the cop without even looking at the picture (and this presupposes that you have to go to court to make them prove you weren't driving, instead of your friend being handed a ticket personally and not getting you involved at all). I have to admit I'm a bit confused by all the rhetoric on his site. It's your car, so shouldn't you be responsible for all of the people you allow to drive it? Perhaps you might not deserve the points on your license, but you've probably earned the fine. I'm also confused as to how this will work with clients of City Car Share and their ilk. If a ticket is sent to CCS, they can't have points added to their license, eh? They can pass on the fine to you (I believe their policies state that they do this), but (if you believe the OP's site) they have no obligation to turn you in. Perhaps companies like this have an exemption where they are required to turn in its drivers? --keith -- kkeller-usenet@wombat.san-francisco.ca.us (try just my userid to email me) AOLSFAQ=http://www.therockgarden.ca/aolsfaq.txt see X- headers for PGP signature information
