Judge In Disbelief After Defendant With Suspended License Joins Zoom Hearing *While Driving*

A Michigan judge was at a loss for words after seeing a man with a suspended driver's license join a Zoom call for his court hearing while driving.

Exactly.

And the judge was as shocked as you are that, once again, a man with a suspended driver's license was driving while calling in for his Zoom court hearing.

A viral clip of the video hearing showed the defendant in the driver's seat of a vehicle in motion, indicated by the passing scenery.

When the judge asked the man if he was driving, he responded:

"Actually, I'm pulling into my doctor's office, actually."

As the judge looked on with his mouth agape, the man, referred to as "Mr. Harris," continued:

"So, just give me one second. I'm parking right now."

You can take a moment to watch the viral clip here.

As the defendant pulled over to park, the judge appeared unamused by the man's audacity.

Unable to articulate his bafflement, the judge tossed aside his pen and did a side face-palm as he waited for the man to park.

When the judge waited a few seconds and asked if the driver was finally "stationary," he responded, "I'm pulling in right now at this second."

Once the session continued, the stumped judge confirmed with the public defender what he saw: the defendant driving when records indicated he didn't have an active license.

The judge remained flummoxed and said:

"I don't even know why he would do that."

He promptly revoked the defendant's bond and instructed the offender to turn himself in at the Washington County jail by 6 p.m. that evening.

"Failure to turn himself in will result in a bench warrant with no bond," the judge announced, to which the defendant took a moment to let it all sink in and throw his head back to say:

"Oh my God."

The incident gave the internet license to ruthlessly mock the guy.

Law school could never have prepared the judge for this one.
