The Identical Twin Parking Ticket Loophole - Neatorama

Swiss twins Harold and Michael Lengen have found the perfect loophole to get out of paying parking tickets:

Police say that in the last year alone the twins have collected 29 parking tickets on a car which they both share. But every time they refuse to pay them and tell courts that the other was driving.
And police say that as they are identical twins it is impossible to rely on visual evidence to prove who was driving the car when they got the ticket.
A police spokesman said: "It is immensely frustrating for our officers. Every time we hand one of them out a ticket we know what is going to happen next and that they will never pay it.

How hard is it to charge the twin when they have testimony from his brother?

I need an evil twin I can frame for my mischiefs...

That's pretty harmless as long as it's only about parking tickets; but did you hear about the German diamond heist where police found DNA but couldn't detain the suspect because they couldn't prove whether it was him or his identical twin? They both got away.
