The most recent suspension was in May 1997 when he missed ?a court date for the other traffic offenses,?

This guy needs to be thrown in jail for a few months.

For a guy who's had his license suspended for 296 times, I'd say he was doing good for the past 5, 6 years.

My uncle was killed by a drunk driver that had already had two dui's and was driving on a suspended license. :( This was in Florida BTW.

Something really needs to be revised.

He did not immediately know how many summonses may have been issued to Williams in order for him to amass 296 suspensions. In 1994, New York City police stopped a Bronx man who had 633 suspensions.
Hey, sounds like the UK, where it is pretty common for people to be roaming the streets with 30, 40, 50 or more criminal convictions. The two burglars shot by homeowner Tony Martin, the eccentric UK farmer convicted of murdering one of the youths and wounding the other, while breaking into his home, had between them amassed more than 60 criminal convictions, including numerous assaults, fraud, burglary, theft, forgery, and one conviction of assault and battery on a police officer.

In fact, the 16 year-old Fred Barras, universally portrayed by the UK media as 'a nice and sweet young boy who liked to misbehave just like any other child' alone had 29 criminal convictions and was out on bail for another offense at the time he was shot burgling Mr. Martin's home.

Meanwhile, then 55 year-old Tony Martin, who was demonized and villified by the UK media, had the record of an upstanding citizen.

If 29 criminal convictions before the age of 17, plus one offense pending, is in the UK just an 'average boy who liked to misbehave as any other child', the UK has bigger problems than anyone could have dreamed.

Well maybe if NY wasn't so quick to suspend licenses, this kind of crap wouldn't happen. My license got suspended for unpaid parking tickets. Unpaid parking tickets!!! Next they'll tell me I can't smoke in bars...oh wait, they already did that.

I believe your username says it all.
