Traffic violation of spouse

[GuidedbyGODkatval 1]

Hi. Just a quick quesstion. Should i disclose the traffic violation of my spouse? Im the one applying for n400 and we got a letter in mail before that the car was caught in camera not stopping before turning right. The driver was my husband though and its been paid off. Is this considered as a violation too?

Traffic camera ticket is always sent to auto registration owner.

Traffic camera ticket is always sent to auto registration owner.

This varies by state. In California, all traffic violations are criminal cases and must be charged against the driver. The prosecution must somehow identify the driver and prove that that it was that person beyond a reasonable doubt. Sending it to the owner is useless if they are not the driver. The driver and anyone else have no obligation to reveal who the driver is, even if they know who it is, even if they are sitting right next to them. Obviously if you are charged and you are not the driver you would not plead guilty.

In some other states, camera tickets are civil matters associated with the car, and not a person.

i had a traffic citation after i sent in the application. During my interview, I brought it up and the IO said if is under $500 and not DUI or anything, she don't care ...so she said I am following the instruction correction, do not need to disclosed
