I'm assuming you either didn't tell them upon getting the tickets that you were not the driver, or you told them and they didn't believe you. If you attempt to handle the tickets yourself in court and are found guilty, you will wind up having 'proof' that you were the driver, and therefore responsible for the financial aspects of the wreck. You've left a whole lot out here, like what car was being driving? Was it yours? If so, why weren't YOU driving?
Bottom line, find yourself a good attorney and be very honest with him,
I wish you luck.

Yeah, in this case you clearly would need an attorney.
