ANN ARBOR, Mich. — A Michigan man appearing virtually in a Washtenaw County court hearing earlier this month was ordered by a judge to turn himself in after his camera showed him actively driving under a suspended license.
The incident happened during a hearing May 15. Corey Harris, 44, was scheduled to attend the hearing for charges stemming from an earlier arrest in Pittsfield Township, just south of Ann Arbor.
Video from the hearing shows the moment when Harris joined the hearing, visibly behind the wheel of a car in motion. Michigan has a law on its books prohibiting the use of cell phones and other electronic devices while driving.
Once Harris joined on Zoom, Judge J. Cedric Simpson immediately asked Harris if he was driving.
"Actually, I'm pulling into my doctor's office actually, so just give me one second. I'm parking right now," Harris responded.
As Harris continued to drive on camera, Simpson could be seen mouthing, "Wow." He then said, "So maybe I don't understand something. This is a driving while license suspended (case) ... and he was just driving, and he didn't have a license?"
Harris remained on camera, a look of grim realization dawning on his face, while lawyers affirmed to Simpson that he had just broadcast to the entire courtroom that he was driving without a valid license.

Maybe he wasn’t driving; maybe he was traveling? It burns us.
This has always been a big issue with DUIs....there’s really no way to stop someone that wants to drive unless they’re put in jail.
I knew a guy back in the 80s that had seven DUIs......SEVEN, and it not once kept him from driving.
You can’t fix stupid. Of course he was leaving his graduation ceremony at an ivy league school.
Raising Arizona was a hilarious and underrated movie IMO.
Have the Coen brothers EVER put out a bad one?
I love everything they’ve done. 👍
He thought he had the same privileges as illegal aliens do.
Any bets he’ll drive to jail?
“Any bets he’ll drive to jail?”
It wouldn’t surprise me in the least.
Should have said “No, I’m not really driving. I’m shooting a scene for a movie, in the old style of Alfred Hitchcock, where they make it look like I’m driving, but it’s just rear projection...”
Can’t fix stupid.
Aiming for DARWIN AWARD
The judge looked like he was trying to keep from laughing.
