This sounds like a very good legal basis (not to mention the psychological
insight) for an argument in court.  How can the Officer verify that my car was
identified as the violator rather than the other(s)? is the first question.  

Obviously, I guess, don't try this defense if you were all alone on a winding
road.  You'll probably lose.
