Our client was charged with driving disqualified the morning after attending to his pregnant girlfriend who was having medical issues. She was staying alone at her parents and requested our client come to assist her. Crisis averted, he drove back to work the following morning and was stopped by police. As valiant as our submissions were, the court was not convinced that this was a case of medical emergency because our client was intercepted driving the day after the emergency. He was convicted, fined and put on a good behaviour bond.
