Just so u know, here in australia, if no one owes up to driving the vehicle at the time of the offence, the owner is automatically fined. No proof is needed. Its a fricking joke here in Aus. So much for democracy, especially now that communist kevin is our pm.

There is more to this story from the Press Association
Speaking outside court, Mr Freeman said: “The summons was fatally flawed. They (Alfa Romeo) did not have any information as to who the driver was. They only had information as to who the car was loaned to. The form wasn’t completed correctly.”
Regardless of who the driver was(but I can guess),to get caught in the first place exceeding the speed limit by such a margin is dopey,nothing to be smug about at all.
If a vehicle is on loan/rented to you,it is dumb in the extreme to allow any one to use it other than yourself.So whatever way you look at it this pleb, sorry celeb, does not come up smelling roses.

Good luck to him.

Has to be proven beyond doubt, and it wasn’t.

Typical, it wouldnt be clarkson if he didnt object quite funny actually lol….I’m surprised the court didnt take into consideration his character and his public objections to speed cameras and his willingness to tell everyone about loop holes in speed cameras and the right speed to do to outrun a speed camera.
