Man Appears For Suspended Driver’s License Hearing On Zoom While Driving Car, Judge Orders Him To Jail

NBC News reports:

A Michigan man with a suspended driver’s license joined a digital court hearing about his case from behind the wheel of a vehicle he was driving.

Corey Harris did not physically appear in court for his hearing on May 15. Instead, he dialed into the Zoom call — while he was driving, according to video of the hearing posted on Washtenaw County Judge Cedric Simpson’s YouTube page.

Simpson looked around the courtroom, taking a long pause, an incredulous smile on his face. Simpson then revoked Harris’ bond and instructed him to turn himself into the Washtenaw County Jail by that evening.
