Recently, I was pulled out of bed late at night when my daughter called and needed a ride home from work unexpectedly. On the way to pick her up, I ended up running a red light at an intersection with a camera and a snap-shot was taken of me running the light. The car I drive is registered under my husband's name and the ticket for this violation ended up being sent to him with a fine of a shocking $381.00. On the ticket, he is asked to indicate whether or not he is the driver. If he is not, he is asked to complete an affidavit implicating the actual driver (including my driver's license #, hair color, eye color, etc.) I was recently told that it is illegal for a court to require one spouse to implicate another, no matter what the spouse's violation. Does anybody know how my husband might complete this ticket without getting himself into trouble and also without implicating me, as his spouse? I would pay the ticket if it was a bit cheaper, but I can't afford almost $400.00.
