Several members of the Royal Family have been caught exceeding the
speed limit – most notably the Princess Royal.
In November 1972 she was clocked at 90mph on the M1. Five years later
she was prosecuted for doing 96mph on the same motorway. In October
1990 she was banned for a month after admitting two separate speeding
offences, while in August 2000 she was clocked doing 93mph in her
Bentley close to her Gloucestershire home Gatcombe Park, earning her
five more penalty points.
Prince Michael of Kent was also banned after driving past an unmarked
police car at 104mph in his Aston Martin – the second time he had been
caught.
And William's uncle Prince Edward was once cautioned for doing 90mph
on a motorway, as were the Duke of Gloucester and Princess Margaret's
son Viscount Linley.
