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.

There are 3 possibilities: You ARE responsbile (or partly responsible) If (1) the un-insured driver is a minor and you are their parent or guardian (2) you are the owner or part-owner of the vehicle they are driving (3) the un-insured driver is on your insurance. Other than those factors, you would not be responsible for them.
