Legal Question in Traffic Law in Maryland

What information is required by the police if they pull someone over without them having any identity information. Someone used my information to get a traffic ticket and I want to know if just giving name, birth date, and address is sufficient information or if it is the fault of the office.

Thanks

The Transportation Article requires a driver to produce his or her license card to an officer on demand. Some officers take the driver's word about who he or she is, if the driver doesn't have the license immediately available.
