He says in the video he was just parking at the doctor's office. 🤣
I like to think he tried to come up for a reason for missing court, and went with "doctor" instinctively, forgetting he was on a video call and not sick, and likely wouldn't have scheduled a doctors appointment for the exact same time he had court to try and postpone jail by a month.
But I dunno
This dude might have double booked.
Part of me wants to give the driver the benefit of the doubt... he looked more stunned than the judge. Idk how the process normally works - never had my license suspended - but I'm wondering if the cop that pulled him over initially told him to Zoom for his "traffic citation" or something and the dude legit had no idea his license was suspended?
I mean, he could just be stupid, but either way it doesn't actually look like he meant to break the rules during that call.
I think he knew his license was suspended. Lots of people drive with no license for years and never wear a seatbelt…it boggles my mind but they just act like occasionally getting a ticket for it is part of life.
Court over Zoom ❌
Zoom over to court ✅
You don’t have to be sick to need a doctor. He might been getting an ass cancer screening
