second time I was called an old guy (72) had had his license pulled for 6 months

​

he had had an old Taurus, drove in Uxbridge and lost his license for 6 month sna dhad hired a lwyer to get it back

​

the police officer showed up and just laid out the facts ie swerving

​

after testimony the officer just left

​

our foreman was all set to convict

​

when wegot togetehr as a group, our foreman was all set to convict the guy

​

and then I spoke

​

a) has anyone here every driven an old Taurus? and then I went into detail about how bad the visibility is

​

b) I am a"10 " driver for my comapny and I STILL make errors from time to time

​

c) I showed how the old guy was punished enough and had to hire a lawyer (I showed him to be poor and might want to have a license just to see his grandkids)

​

d) I talked about the area itself (rt 140 in N uxbridge just south of CVS) and how poor the striping is there

​

e) his state of mind (grieving)

​

The guy;s lawyer did not go into any detail like this

​

but I put enough doubt and spoke withconviction the old guy won
