Is he responsible of any tickets acquired?
Laws for traffic violations are specific to a state or municipality. A general rule of thumb is that moving violations, from speeding to driving without a license is the driver's responsibility; vehicle violations, such as invalid registration, liability in an accident, illegal parking and towing fees, are the responsibility of the vehicle owner. In the case of an accident, the driver is responsible for the traffic violations, the vehicle owner is responsible for the damages. In most jurisdictions, the vehicle owner can sue the driver in a civil action for costs incurred to the owner by the driver of the vehicle. Be careful who you allow to drive your car.
