The Duke of Norfolk has been slapped with a driving ban after he confessed to running a red light and failed to appeal it in a secret court hearing by claiming he needed to drive because he had King Charles' coronation to organise.
The 65-year-old Duke, who planned the Queen's funeral, was hauled to court over an offence which took place in Wandsworth, London on April 7.
The peer was caught running a red light whilst on his mobile phone when he cut across police and has now been banned from getting behind the wheel for six months.
