    At no point did the article dispute that the man knew his license was suspended and that he therefore knew he was driving on a suspended license. Hell, his case was about him having done this before.

    Don’t video call into your driving on a suspended license court case while driving on a suspended license.

      Are you defending the botched legal process and suggesting that it deserves more respect than the man who is in fact in the right? That we should continue to obey even when it’s wrong?

      The man also knew that his license was not in fact suspended in any legitimate way. If I was the victim of failed bureaucracy for months I would ignore it too.

        Ignore it sure, but maybe not as you zoom into a court appearance

          Might help if you try to understand where people are coming from. This guy was stupid for video calling while driving, period. That said, if my license was supposed to be reinstated two years prior, I think I’d be driving too (while being very careful about avoiding any complications with law enforcement). Comparing that to sovcit stuff isn’t reasonable.
