My two brothers are twins.  They jointly own a 1979 Honda accord hatchback.
Most people can't tell them apart easily--much less with a blurred photo.  Now,
let's say John was driving and got his picture taken.  1.  Who gets the ticket
and points on the license--Jim or John?  2.  Where is the burden of proof of 
identity; on the Plaintiff (State Police) or Defendant (John [or Jim?])?  They
both have valid drivers' licenses and they are both named on the car title.

Any ideas, net.lawyers?
