You are being prosecuted for speeding.

Your first line of defence is to say there must have been a mistake because you have never owned a car in your life. Documents are quickly produced to prove that you do in fact, own a car.

No matter. Your next move is to say, “OK, I do own a car. Fine. But there’s no way I was the one driving it.”
