Beasley, Judge,
concurring specially.
I agree with the majority and believe it important to point out that there was nothing on the traffic citation to alert the solicitor or the court that the “other charge” defendant said was pending in the superior court was connected in any way with the traffic charge. Also, defendant’s being from out of town and unable to post bond was the reason defendant’s counsel had given the solicitor for hurrying the traffic charge disposition. That would not alert anyone, either, that there might be other charges, or that if there were, they were related.
I am authorized to state that Presiding Judge Deen and Judge Pope join in this special concurrence.
