Question
I have a friend that was driving on a suspended license and had two kids in the car. She was pulled over for running a red light and told the officer she didn't have her license on her but gave a social security number and name that wasn't hers. She went to the court to pay the ticket (under the other person's name and social security number). She knew it because it was her sisters and was only one away from her's. So, the ticket for running the red light was paid-- thinking her sister was never going to find out what she did. BUT, her sister received a letter from Ohio saying her license was suspended (she now lives in Michigan and remarried with a different name and has for over 8 years). So, that is how we all found out what the other person did (she lives in Ohio). I am just wondering what will happen to her for lying to police and giving someone else's social security number? She paid the ticket in court (and has a receipt) and they didn't require any ID.
Answer
Dear Abby,
As I always state, please remember I am not an attorney or judge and am writing through a law enforcement perspective. There are many issues in your question that could compound the problem for your friend. This would be up to the State Attorney's Office and the judge to determine what to prosecute.
Now I have a question before I can answer your question; Is the suspension of the drivers license directly related to your friends running of the red light? I do not understand why the drivers license was suspended if she paid the fine. Please explain.
