I had something similar happen. I had sold my car to a friend in need, it was not in the best of condition and I think I made some $50 on the deal. Apparently she drove the car 100+ miles out of the way and it died(go figure .. as I say it was not in the best shape) She left it there and the tickets piled up, she had never gone to the trouble of getting the title transferred at the DMV. So.. to make a long story short, the car got towed yet the tickets remained and were sent to me. I went to the DMV and explained the situation and had what is called a Forced Title Transfer done. She would still have been required to actually pay the required fees but what it did was remove the responsibility of the tickets and any other that accumulated after from me.
