I was recently in a car where the driver was speeding. We got pulled over, and unfortunately (and very stupidly, I admit) we had an opened beer bottle in teh car. It was on my side of the car, so I got the ticket. The ticket written states that I "did operate a motor vehicle..." and "committed the following infractions..." and she wrote Open Container. The thing is, I wasn't driving. Is this correct, or did she write the ticket wrong? Also, she told me it was a non-moving violation so wouldn't affect my insurance, but she checked "Traffic" on the top, and the ticket says if guilty it will go on my driving record. What exactly does all this mean? And if it does go on my record, how long does it take? Do I have to pay for the ticket first? Gosh what an idiotic mess!
