Hopefully he will still be driving and able to bring the Alligator to Corowa in March.

Under current legislation, his licence will still be current and usable until his court case later in the year.
Don't think the Judge will have too much sympathy though.

The only reason it's being linked is some bright spark in the media remembered this was the same John Belfield who came to notice and they discovered they had photographs and footage of him from the museum's auction.

Pictures and footage are gold for the media and that combined with the Premier bagging him added up to the silly sensational front cover for the 'HUN' today.

Hopefully this will die down now.
