A motorist in Medford was stopped Thursday by a patrol officer for failing to signal before turning into a parking lot, but he was arrested because he was driving on a license that has been suspended or revoked 49 times, Suffolk County police said.
John Auteri, 48, of Medford, was pulled over just before 10 a.m. as he turned off into the lot at 580 Route 112, police said.
