You can not be convicted unless your car can be specifically identified by a witness, basically that means if no one saw your license plate you are free and clear.

This sounds bogus. Fifteen minutes later they see you parked and charge you because you have white 911? And your friend doesn't try to get out of it? Come on...

Actually, you can not be convicted unless a witness can put you behind the wheel when the offense took place. Basically, if the cop loses sight of your vehicle at any point and can not prove that you switched drivers etc. you are off the hook. I have successfully used this to beat a ticket twice.

Here in Alberta, they can give the owner a fine for being the registered owner of a vehicle that was speeding but there are no demerits, just a reduced fine.
