18 in car with beer no consumption

My son is 18 (Oct, 1990) and decided to go to a club with 2 other boys. He was a passenger. In the car was unopened beer. My son did not consume any, just looking for a ride to and from the club. It is a non alcohol club. They were pulled over for a problem with the headlights and my son received a court appearance summons. What is the advised position for him when he appears in court.

The advised position is do not wait until court to hire an attorney. One mistake should not be compounded into two mistakes.
