You probably would have still gotten the ticket, if the officer observed you driving while the headlight was out. The lck of keys is ususualy ponly applicable where the officer approaches the defendant in a parked car. If he pulls you over, your only oportunity to use the "I wasn't driving" excuse is if your passenger makes you change seats at gunpoint.

Good luck
