Tom Is on Trial for Robbery

Tom is on trial for robbery. The prosecution called two witnesses:
· Karen testified that she was on duty as a cashier at a Hamburger Haven, a drive-thru fast food restaurant, when Robbie drove up to her window. She claimed he aimed a large gun in her face and demanded all the money in the cash drawer. Karen testified that she fainted and when she awoke the police told her that someone took all the money.
· Lonnie testified that he was at the grill preparing burgers and fries when he heard a man say something about money and Karen screaming. When he looked up, he saw what he believed was a blue Ford driving away. He said that the car "laid rubber" going around the curve in the exit drive-way. Should Lonnie be allowed to testify about how fast the blue Ford was driving?

A) Yes, he saw the car drive away.
B) Yes, he can testify that the car "laid rubber" but he cannot give an estimate of the vehicle's speed.
C) Yes he can because he sees many cars drive on that driveway every day.
D) No, only an expert witness can testify about how fast a car was going.
