He stated that McKeen then continued east weaving in and out of traffic and hit speeds of between 110 and 115 mph as he passed Pickering Village. Hutch- inson said that when the ac- cused was stopped outside of Whitby his breath smelled of alcoho! although he was not affected by it and there were two pints of beer and a half- pint of whiskey in the car. McKeen, who pleaded guilty to careless driving and having liquor in a place other than a residence, told the court that he thought he was being followed by "smart-alecks or since the constables were in plain clothes travelling in an unmarked car. Aagistrate Harry Jermyn fined McKeen $50 for careless said he would help Barry E, Bryant get another job if the lsixemonth licence - suspension imposed by Magistrate Jermyn would cause him to lose his.
