The Administrative Court of Central Finland revoked the mayor's decision to suspend the driver's license for three weeks. The mayor had suspended the license for two weeks after three speeding offenses in late 1985 and again after two more offenses in 1986. The court ruled that the second suspension was invalid because the driver had not committed three new offenses within the required one-year period following the first suspension.

Nimismies peruutti 27.12.1985 H:n ajokortin kahdeksi viikoksi, koska hän oli 14.5.1985, 22.6.1985 ja 10.8.1985 syyllistynyt ylinopeusrikkomukseen. H:n syyllistyttyä 20.11.1985 ja 11.4.1986 uudelleen samaan rikkomukseen, nimismies peruutti 3.12.1986 hänen ajokorttinsa kolmeksi viikoksi. LO kumosi nimismiehen 3.12.1986 tekemän päätöksen, koska H ei ollut 27.12.1985 jälkeen syyllistynyt vuoden kuluessa kolmeen uuteen ylinopeusrikkomukseen.
