Resumo Omnilex

The driver struck a pedestrian who was already in the middle of a pedestrian crossing. The court held that this constituted a serious fault warranting a license withdrawal. However, the original three-month duration was reduced to two months because of the driver's good prior record and the professional need to use a vehicle.
