The court convicted the defendant of driving without a license and imposed a fine of 150 PLN. Although the defendant claimed her friend drove the car and she was merely a passenger, the court found her testimony inconsistent with the witness who admitted to driving. The court ruled that the offense protects public order and requires the driver to possess a license, regardless of the defendant's denial of control.
