Katie Price received seventh driving ban after failing to respond to police about 80mph speeding. Total bans exceed six years since her first disqualification in 2010.
Seventh Driving Ban
Katie Price has been handed her seventh driving ban after failing to respond to police correspondence regarding an 80mph speeding incident. The Ford Capri was registered in her name, and Price was prosecuted and convicted of failing to provide driver information. The case was processed through the Single Justice Procedure, a confidential court process.
Magistrate Claire Sagar found Price guilty of failure to respond to police. The speeding charge was dropped by police. Price's driving disqualifications now total more than six years since her first ban in 2010.
Lengthy Driving History
Price's troubled history on the roads stretches back more than 15 years. Her first disqualification came in December 2010 after admitting a speeding charge. She was disqualified for a year in 2012 after failing to respond to speeding tickets.
In January 2019, she admitted to driving while disqualified. She was convicted of being drunk in charge of a vehicle after it was observed veering off the road.
A judge ruled her account was not plausible. In 2021, a judge criticised Price for having one of the worst driving records ever seen.
Financial and Legal Struggles
Price has faced significant financial difficulties. Bankruptcies from 2019 and 2024 have been discharged. She remains subject to a court order until February 2027.
A judge instructed her to curtail her extravagant pattern of expenditure. Nearly half of her monthly earnings were going to pay off creditors. She struggles to secure car insurance due to her driving convictions.
