What happens if you are sued from the person who hit you in a car accident. The person you hit was ticketed for the accident at the time.?

If a person who sues you was the person responsible for the accident, they have little chance of winning the claim. But they have succeeded in scaring you, reducing the chance that you will sue them. It looks like you must counter-claim, and say that you are waiting for the outcome of the court-case on the ticket for the accident. If they are found guilty of causing the accident, no court will hold you responsible for their damages.

If you cosigned on a car loan and the car is in an accident am I liable?

That depends on whether your name is on the title also. Not everyone who co-signs has their name on the title. However, you should consider something else. People who need a co-signer generally have a poor credit record. Many do not follow through with responsible car ownership and allow their insurance to lapse. If they wreck the car they stop making payments. In that case the lender will go after you for the balance on the loan.
