This is up there with the cat filter video for funniest shit I’ve ever seen. This is some 30 Rock level comedy writing. Holy shit.
The prosecutor was ducking her head, giggling into her hand.
🤣🤣🤣
“I’m pulling up riiiiiight now. Onnnnnnne second. There, I’m parked. Now, why is my license suspended again?”
“I’m a bit nervous with this being my first court case, so I hope you don’t mind that I’m a bit drunk”
For real though, why was his license suspended in the first place? Like, I feel way differently about this story if the defendant is a repeat drunk driver vs someone who just didn’t pay to register their car or whatever.
There’s also the non-zero chance he wasn’t informed his license was suspended. Not sure about Michigan laws on that though.

I’m really torn about this. He’s in jail now for driving without a license. That in itself doesn’t harm anyone. It could very well be that he just didn’t have the money to renew his driver’s license. Doesn’t seem like the kind of thing deserving of jail time by itself. As for the driving, in a lot of places it’s not possible to keep a job, or go to the doctors office, without a car.
That being said, since he doesn’t have a license, his insurance, even if he had any, is void and therefore he is a liability. He clearly isn’t going to stop driving when he isn’t legally entitled to.
In a society where driving isn’t often optional, I feel like the law is more callous than necessary. I don’t have a solution though. Maybe drivers licenses could be free so that your license would only be suspended for cause?
The video is absolutely hilarious though. The comedic timing is as good as a sitcom. No marks.
You have given many reasons he might be driving without a license.
You haven’t given any for the reason he might be doing it while on a zoom trial with a judge for doing so in the first place. Which is the real reason why he’s in jail now.
Many states also have a no use of cell phone while driving law, which he is clearly breaking.
Your Honor, if I may Devil’s Advocate for that other poster;
To be the victim of a callous system designed with apathy at best and cruelty at worst…
and to be a profound fool who never picks up any chance to put two neurons together to a task however many chances are given…
Is not mutually exclusive. 🤣. You might even be acquainted with a few folks miraculously barely navigating the concrete jungle already.
It’s always a tragic story from some angle, but empathy doth need a break sometimes, that’s why we developed humor to uncomfortably bridge the gap.
Don’t Zoom and Drive people, court or not.
Don’t do the thing you’re being accused of while appearing before a judge is common sense though. It is so incredibly easy to not physically be in a car for this hearing.
Suspension of a license is usually because the state has deemed that the driver is not fit to drive for various reasons, either criminal or medical. Not paying the renewal fee usually just means the license lapses and the penalities are far less.
