Former vehicle owners can get tickets dismissed
You can skip your first court appearance for a qualifying ticket issued after you transferred your interest in the vehicle. The ticket must concern parking, abandoning the vehicle, or another person driving it. You must have submitted the required transfer notice to Oregon’s transportation department. Within 30 days after the ticket is issued, notify the court using a certificate of innocence or another court-approved method. You must swear or affirm these facts and that you are exempt from liability under Oregon law. The court must dismiss the ticket if it finds you exempt.
