Can a California citation by a NJ driver for failing to yield to pedestrian be dismissed if the cop wrote the insurance company's address as the home address of driver?

Not if the ticket were given to the driver by the officer at the scene. The wrong address is an administrative error and has nothing to do with wherher or not the offense was committed. The driver receiving the ticket has been given notice of the charge and the trial date and court location would be on the ticket. Most state laws would allow the officer to amend the ticket anyway. Drivers, especially from out-of-state, are not going to get out of tickets on little technicalities like that. Now, if the ticket were mailed to the driver at the wrong location and if he were convicted for failing to show up in court, the ticket would still not be dismissed, but any conviction would be set aside and things would start over again.

ANSWERIt won't hurt, aspecially if the citation was dissmissed, however, not disclosing it may cause a problem. Insurance co. don't take dishonesty lightly. On the other hand, all Insurance co. can and will run your driving record, through the DMV and/or the Court citation System and find out regardless.

Can you be ticketed in New Jersey for not having your insurance card in the car?
If you had insurance at the time of the citation and take proof of insuranc to the judge, he will USUALLY dismiss the ticket. Unfortunately, you will have to appear in person to do that, and there is no guarantee that it will be dismissed, so be respectful to the judge. Absolutely. You're required to have proof of insurance with at all times while operating a motor vehicle. However, that ticket is usually dismissed after you show proof of insurance to the court.

Do you get a citation if your insurance company finds you at fault for an accident in California?
Not if it happened on private property and generally speaking if you weren't issued a ticket at the scene of the accident you most likely won't get one later. The insurance company can't issue a citation. Only the police can do that.
Can ticket be dropped if you get insurance before the ten days are up for no insurance ticket?
It is the charge, not the ticket, that would be dropped, and the ten days is for the driver to produce proof there was insurance at the time of the citation, not later. If the citation was not issued because of an accident or other moving violation, it is possible the court would dismiss the case, or continue it without a finding, to be dismissed if there are no further violations (usually in 6 months or a year).
