Man Charged With Driving On Suspended License Calls Into Court While Driving On Suspended License

WASHTENAW COUNTY, MI – After a man was charged with driving on a suspended license, he appeared virtually in court – while driving.

The man attended his hearing via Zoom on May 15 before Judge Cedric Simpson in Washtenaw County’s 14A District Court.

Upon joining the hearing, the 44 year-old man appeared to be driving a vehicle. When Simpson asked the defendant if he was driving, the defendant responded that he was pulling into his doctor’s office. The judge then waited for the man to stop and park the vehicle.

“I’m looking at his records and he doesn’t have a license,” Simpson said. “He’s suspended and he’s just driving… "

He took a long pause. “I don’t even know why he would do that.”

Simpson revoked his bond and ordered that he turn himself into the Washtenaw County jail that day.

“Oh my God,” the man sighs.
