If I were to lend out my car, and the borrower were to get a parking ticket, who is responsible?
If I were able to prove that I was not the driver at the time and date of the ticket, could I legally force the one who borrowed my car to pay, or would I be SOL and just be more careful when deciding to whom I lend my car?
Anyone know the law for sure?

I know this doesn't answer your question, but if you are responsible for the paying of the ticket, does that rule out small claims court against the driver of your car?

quote: The New York City Department of Finance is pleased to provide you with this guide detailing how to request the dismissal of a parking ticket you believe defective (that is, incorrectly filled out). Defective parking tickets may be dismissed even if you do not have another defense to the charged violation. If you do have another defense; however, you should include that also, in case the Judge subsequently deems the ticket non-defective. The fine may still be reduced, even if you do not have another defense, if you show good cause (in other words, "guilty with an explanation".) If you are making your request in writing, plainly state why you believe the ticket is defective, as well as any other defense you may have. Be sure to enclose copies of any evidence you wish to have considered, although signed statements should be originals. Non-submitted items cannot be considered. Evidence can include: witness statements, photographs, documents, etc. Decisions on mailed requests will be mailed to you as well.

If I was tall and stuffed full of lean muscle tissue like you are, Eddie, I would most likely beat people up for the sheer joy of it. Considering that, I'm having difficulty understanding why you would pass up the opportunity to beat the snuffin' out of someone when you have a strong case like them getting you a parking ticket and refusing to pay it.

I don't think Moose gets enough credit for being funny. But, I think that works for him because it catches you by surprise.
There are a couple people around here that are HILARIOUS but don't get the credit for it they deserve. Zalmoxis, zgator and Squicky come to mind. There a bunch of others, and I'm always surprised by how little credit they get.

I got a parking ticket on a date once. Well, sort of a go-to-the-campus-coffee-shop-and-chat-for-three-hours-while-parked-in-a-two-hour-parking-space...
It's okay though. She didn't seem to think I was too stupid afterward.
