Can an expired registration ticket be dismissed?

Got a ticket but the cop wrote down my old car information with expired registration. Can i beat the ticket?

• So i got pulled over for taking a carpool exit, and i had my old vehicles registration in my car with me and my current and he asked to see it all, on the ticket he wrote my old vehicles info, a ford explorer 2000 white. With expired registration by over a year. I drive a 2012 black mazda. So all the info is wrong and it says the expiration date is wrong on the ticket. So since all the vehicle info is wrong and expired the officer obviously did not do his job correctly can i get this ticket dismissed?

• Answer:

  No, you can't beat the ticket. On the contrary, you are likely to get socked with an additional charge for driving with an expired registration. You can explain and take the current registration with you when you go to court, but it won't affect the carpool exit charges.
