A police chief caught speeding five times in four months has pleaded to keep her licence. A court was told the loss of her licence would cause Nottinghamshire’s Police and Crime Commissioner Caroline Henry 'exceptional hardship'.
The 52-year-old, who had previously pledged a road safety crackdown, was emotional as she appeared before magistrates in Nottingham on Monday where she was appearing to be sentenced for the motoring offences. However her plea was rejected by District Judge Leo Pyle.
Instead she was banned from driving for six months. She was also fined a total of £2,450 and had 15 penalty points added to her driving licence.
