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.

He should not be driving. Throwing the ticket away will make it harder to legally take his license. I guess they are waiting for him to run over a kid before they do anything about it.
