福克斯新闻 癌症患者起诉车管所

Jennifer Giordano says she broke down sobbing¹ when an employee at the agency's office in Eatontown refused to use an old photo she brought with her to renew her driver's license². The 40-year-old wears a headscarf to cover her balding head caused by chemotherapy.

Jennifer Giordano声称，她去换驾驶证时，伊顿车管所的一名工作人员拒绝用她带去的旧照片，为此她崩溃得流下了眼泪。这位40岁的中年妇女戴了头巾，方便遮住因化疗而变秃的头顶。

Giordano claims the employee told her, "you have to take that thing off" for a new picture.

Giordano说，工作人员告诉她，重新拍照的时候，“你得把那个东西拿下来”。

She's suing for emotional distress³, noting New Jersey⁴ law allows people undergoing medical treatment to use old photos for a driver's license.

发现新泽西法律允许正在接受治疗的人办理驾驶证时使用旧照片后，Giordano控告了车管所给她造成了精神损失。

Another employee eventually stepped in and gave Giordano a new license with the old photograph.

最后，车管所另一名工作人员介入此事，用Giordano的旧照片给她办了新的驾驶证。
