Cop wrote my ID incorrect on ticket

Being in law enforcement, the officer can ammend the citation at the hearing to the correct spelling of your name etc. and chances are you will still be found guilty. My opinion would be to call the department that issued the citation and ask for the officer and inform him of the mistake. Ask him if he would be willing to work with you in decreasing the fine. Honesty plays a large role in law enforcement.

Just to play devil's advocate, it all depends on the officer of the law enforcement you are speaking to. I told the truth once and it cost me 2 hours of my time on the side of the road just to find out that I was telling the truth.

The officer is not present during the hearing though? & how would they identify me if both my name and ID is incorrect. Just doesn't make sense to me. The car isn't even under my name. Only thing correct is my home address
