Renowned actor David Morrissey, best known for his role in The Walking Dead, is at risk of losing his driving licence after being caught speeding in his luxury Jaguar.
The 59-year-old British star was reportedly driving above the speed limit in a built-up area, prompting legal action that could result in a temporary ban.
Details of the Offence
Morrissey was allegedly clocked exceeding the speed limit in his high-performance vehicle, though the exact location and speed have not been disclosed. Authorities have confirmed the case is being processed, with a court hearing expected soon.
Potential Consequences
If found guilty, Morrissey could face:
- A fine of up to £1,000 (or £2,500 for motorway offences)
- 3-6 penalty points on his licence
- A possible driving ban if he accumulates 12 or more points within three years
Given this is reportedly not his first speeding offence, the court may impose stricter penalties.
Celebrity Speeding Incidents
Morrissey joins a growing list of celebrities caught speeding in the UK. The incident highlights how even high-profile individuals aren't exempt from road safety laws.
The actor, who has appeared in numerous British dramas alongside his international success, has yet to publicly comment on the matter.
