Ashley Cole doesn’t do himself any favours does he?
As if it’s not bad enough being caught doing over 100mph in a 50mph zone, he then argues he was only doing 80! Unfortunately, the police, being their usual picky selves, didn’t quite see his point – funny that!
Cole didn’t turn up for his trial but it looks as if it could be a while before he gets to take his Lamborghini Gallardo out for a spin once he’s sentenced at the end of the month, because Richard Lomax prosecuting, says “The defendant was stopped and spoken to and the words he said at the time, when it became plain that somebody was pointing a speed camera at him, were: ‘Can’t you do anything about those idiots who keep chasing me?’ The Crown says there can be no other sensible construction of the words uttered by Mr Cole at the time than that he was conceding he was driving at a speed more than 50mph. It is plain that he found the attention of persons with cameras unwelcome and he was trying to get away from them. The only sensible inference therefore is that he was going too quickly.”
What you might call ‘banged to rights’.
