As he explained it, they will only dismiss the ticket against you (the registered owner receiving the ticket in the mail) if you identify the actual driver - so you have to go in and roll over on the driver if you want to get out of the ticket. But if the driver is your spouse you can invoke spousal privilege and you both get off, IIRC. I'm not sure of the legal convolutions that lets you say "I can't identify that person due to spousal privilege" and not identify that person as your spouse but there it is.
