On Feb 5th, Tracy Sorum pled guilty to a third offense of OWI. Sorum was sentenced to 35 days in Jail starting on 4/4/09, his DOT License was revoked for 24 months beginning on 2/5/09, and he was ordered to pay $1471.00 in court costs by 4/6/09.
Unfortunately, Wisconsin has one of the most generous Occupational License programs in the country, even for 3rd time OWI offenders who live/work in one of the most bike/bus friendly areas of Wisconsin. Sorum could be eligible for an occupational license as early as Jun 5th 2009 - about the same time bicycle ridership starts to peak for the summer. While Sorum's current home address has been scrubbed from his court records I can tell you his address listed before the scrub was a few short blocks away from the Winnequah & Midmoor intersection (near the lake loop) in Monona. _______________________________________________ Bikies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.danenet.org/listinfo.cgi/bikies-danenet.org
