My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: NY
This is a very complicated situation so I'll be as concise and articulate as possible so here goes:
I found out recently that I have two tickets (dated 7/27/14) under my name in NY. The two tickets are unlicensed driver and Use of Portable Electronic Devices. The thing is, I, personally, wasn't ticketed on these days as I was in CT all day (I have proof of my whereabouts as well, with two individuals able to testify in court).
Now, what I'm thinking is that I let a relative borrow my car that day and they were the ones who got the ticket. I haven't yet confronted this with them but my guess is that since the car was registered under my name, I am culpable for their missteps. The question becomes: what do I do and how do I ensure it's not on my record. I especially want this removed since I have another ticket (really small ticket) that I want to fight and I can't fight it with something on my record. The reality is, I don't want to get in trouble for something I didn't do, especially as I'm responsible for paying insurance on my vehicles.
Also, if anyone recommends good counsel in ny, I'm happy to hear recommendations.
