And you might have an alibi, and it would be obvious that the car had been tampered with (lock and ignition). Just like when are accused of a crime and all the evidence is pointing at you you will be a serious suspect but you still have a chance to explain and (if necessary) have your day in court later. The jury decides, but you can't blame the police for suspecting you did it.

In the UK, however, you can't get away with a driving offence by saying "I don't know who was driving the car at the time". Unless you can show that someone else actually WAS driving then the responsibility (and the punishment) will be imposed on the registered keeper of the vehicle. Your vehicle, your responsibility.
