Miller Place Woman Receives Multiple Tickets From SCPD For Using “Fake Passenger” In The HOV Lane
Dix Hills – Suffolk County Police issued a Miller Place woman multiple tickets after she was pulled over for driving with a phony passenger in the HOV lane on the Long Island Expressway in Dix Hills on Thursday morning.
Highway Patrol Officer Andrew Spina was traveling in the left lane of the westbound Long Island Expressway, near exit 51, when he became suspicious of the front seat passenger in a 2011 Subaru Outback traveling in the HOV lane.
When Officer Spina pulled over the vehicle, he observed that the driver, Candace Breen-Warren, had piled clothing, topped by a baseball hat, and a briefcase in the passenger seat in an attempt to resemble a person.
Breen-Warren, 61, was issued summonses for the HOV occupancy violation as well as driving an unregistered and uninspected vehicle.
A criminal charge is an accusation. A defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
