An Israeli gardener set off on a lawnmower trek to protest the revocation of his driver license. Yuval Weizman left his home in the Jordan Valley kibbutz of Kfar Rubin on Sunday, intent on driving up to the Transportation Ministry in Jerusalem and demanding his license back. It was not clear if the lawnmower was up to the three-day, 188-mile trip. Weizman, 37, says his business has been wrecked since police revoked his license half a year ago after catching him talking on a cellphone behind the wheel.
