== == You still have to appear in court, on the "court date" and ask the Prosecutor if the ticket can be with-drawn, based on it's "defects". If the vehicle plate number is correct, and it is registered to you, he may have the officer re-write the ticket on the spot and you will still have to answer the charge, that day. Minor errors can be corrected before the trial begins, and the charge heard by the court, without prejudice to your case. Be prepared to show your vehicle's registration papers, to proove the correct model and color of it. This may not get you off .

Can a ticket be thrown out if the officer put the wrong name on the ticket is it invalid?
A ticket Can be thrown out for any reason the judge deems fit. However what do you mean by the wrong name. But in general if the officer gave you a ticket then it is yours. You obviously did something wrong just own up to it. Trying to weasel out of a ticket because of some small clerical error, which he may have fixed upon returning to the station (I have seen this happen before, someone has there ticket and something is werong on it like a name or something and the court documents have that same ticket with the corrected info, they usually side with the officer) only upsets judges and magistrates because of your lack of ethics

No, an officer's error in properly filling out the citation does not GUARANTEE it will be thrown out, and is in no way by itself a reason for being found "not responsible" However if the judge decides that the officer could have also made a mistake on say the "infraction itself" then the judge may call the officers attention to detail into question wondering what else the officer could have made a "mistake" on.

Can a traffic ticket be thrown out if the ticket was dated wrong Say if my ticket was dated for the 30 and it was really the 31st?
Depending on the exact nature of the offense ticketed, the police officer has a certain period of time within which to amend the ticket to put in the correct date. This type of mistake is not an automatic reason to dismiss the ticket, but it might impeach the officer's credibility if it goes to trial. Most likely it would not damage the officer's credibility to the extent where the court will disbelieve everything he/she says about the violation.
