Here’s the latest on Guy Martin’s speeding case:
-
Guy Martin has been banned from driving for six months after two speeding offences on his motorcycle. He was recorded at 46 mph in a 40 mph zone on the A50 near Leicester and 78 mph in a temporary 50 mph zone on the A43 near Brackley, leading to the ban and fines totaling about £1,329. This was processed under the Single Justice Procedure at Loughborough Magistrates’ Court. [sources mention: Mirror, Liverpool Echo, BBC, and others reporting the same outcome][2][4][7]
-
The rulings indicate he accumulated at least 12 penalty points on his licence as part of the sanctions, and he did not contest the ban in court. He apologized through his solicitors and accepted the penalties.[1][2]
If you’d like, I can pull up one or two of the primary articles for direct quotes or provide a concise timeline of the two incidents (dates, locations, and speeds) with citations.
