Its your car. You are going to be held responsible for the tickets.

You, as the owner of the vehicle, are responsible for the tickets. There is no way we can tell you if the tickets will/can been reduced in any way, as we have no idea of the nature of the tickets.

The most likely scenario is that you will need to pay the $400 and seek reimbursement from the ex.

Driving is a privilege, not a right. You own the property - you are requesting to the state for the ability to drive your property on THEIR (and federal) roadways. If there is a problem with your property, the state can deny you this - but they cannot take the property away from you unless YOU break the law with your property.

My point was not that you are applying to drive on THEIR roadway.. but more that if your car does not meet state/federal standards you will not be issued the required documentation to drive YOUR property on the roadway.

But the state does not own YOUR property. If you can provide any legal stance that a state has ever asserted it's ownership of an individuals (vehicle) property, outside of the individual (or vehicle) not meeting legal standards or holding valid documentation, then the 1st set of drivel you posted (which seems to be deleted) might mean something.
I guess the counter-point you seemed to be trying to make, again in the 1st post that's deleted, was in response to that the owner of the vehicle is responsible for the tickets made by Zigner.
