Man Attends His Suspended License Court Hearing on Zoom While Driving

Today's No Sweat News gets all technical from a legal stand point, so you may have to bear with me for a moment but the scenario is clear: this man had a suspended license court hearing via zoom and he dialed in while driving.

Hey, I get it man. We are all busy. We've all got things to do and places to go. But, even with the smallest amount of planning, this guy could have gotten away with this. But, instead he's looking at actual jail time. Let's go to the video tape:

So, you've got a suspended drivers license. You have a court case to talk to a judge about getting your drivers license back. The court case is on zoom. There's basically one place you could take this zoom meeting that will cause a problem and that one place is behind the wheel of a car.

Instead of taking this suspended license court hearing via zoom while actually driving there's any number of places that this guy could have done his zoom from:

You gotta love the public defender on the video. That poor woman knows what's up right when the defendant comes on the screen. She asks for an adjournment but the judge has already seen what this idiot had done and tells everyone that he's got to turn himself in.

The honorable J. Cedric Simspon in Washtenaw County deserves a medal for his performance on this video.

"OK, so maybe I don't understand something." The judge tries to quantify the idiocy he is witnessing. "This is a driving license suspended?" "That is correct your honor." "And he was just driving. Annnnd, he doesn't have a license."

Looks around incredulously...

It's finally warm outside again. All I ever want to do this time of year is sit outside with my friends and yap for hours. And honestly, nothing accompanies that better than a fun cocktail. And with so many different fruits finally in season, what else could you even do with them other than make a drink? Okay yes, you could bake or cook or make a fruit salad, but let's save that for another day.

If you're in search of inspiration for cocktails to make for guests at your summer barbeque or to fuel your next gossip session, you're in luck! I've put together a list of 6 different cocktail recipes below and one mocktail recipe. Some of the drinks on the list would even be fun and festive for a Memorial Day, 4th of July, or Labor Day party!

If you decide to make any of these cocktails (or even put your own spin on them) take photos and tag us on social media! We'd love to see what you end up making and who you're sharing them with!

Have a great summer, and most importantly, *please drink responsibly*.

It's simple, it's summery, what's not to like? You could even swap out the Malibu for coconut tequila if you prefer a spirit that's got a little more punch. Yummy!

Now, the girl in the video doesn't give this one a name. Some people in the comments were calling it a Blue Lagoon, others said it was called a Blue Hawaiian, and others called it Lake Water. So I've decided to call it Ocean Water, since we're here right next to the beach! :) Enjoy!

Essentially, a lemon tequila spritz. If I personally were going to make this, I'd probably also add a bit of club soda. I love bubbles! This looks like summer in a glass.

Another great one for Memorial Day and 4th of July BBQs! Plus, I love her energy, so I had to include it!

Is there anything more summer than watermelon? And I love the idea of a Tajin rim, a little something different!

I wanted to add a non-alcoholic choice, and this one looks delicious! If you're really hankering to turn this one into a cocktail, add your favorite spirit and go to town!
