Owner of the vehicle I would say. If it was on someone's person, that's a different issue.

Why just the owner?

It's the owners property, it's the owners responsibility to ensure what goes on with that vehicle. The only reason I think there is truth to that is my dad is a cop. One of my friends a long time back had a bag on him. I promptly threw him out of the vehicle at the next stop sign when I found out. Asked my dad (CA Cop) what would happen if I was pulled over and the friend dumped it on the floor boards. He said I would be the one gettig hauled away.

I'm not addressing the searching of the vehicle though..That sounds a bit odd for a speeding ticket.

Why not just the owner (driver)? You think the driver is going to let somebody put a stash in his glovebox? If he does, then it become the driver's.

Anybody you know could smoke cannabis. If you're against cannabis, then you won't ever know they do. So, what are you going to do if you catch a ride with a friend and he get stopped with pot in his car and they arrest you?

Will you suck it up and just go along with the presumption of guilt, pay the $125 a week for the year you get probation and accept the bust on your record? This is exactly what happened to a guy I know personally that caught a ride through Texas.
