A 96 year old man should not have to drive his disabled son to his appointments, and there are no circumstances in which it is ok to speed through a school zone.

I completely get not fining him, but the case should not have been dismissed and the judge should have recommended some kind of service or help that could take his son to his appointments so this very elderly man is not at risk of killing children with his car.

Children deserve the same opportunity to live to 96 that this guy had.

Nothing about this is amazing, it’s sad.

Yeah, this kind of pisses me off. Just because his son has a health condition doesn't mean everyone else between them and this supposed doctor's office has to be at risk.
