Driving ban for speeding Henson
Wales rugby star Gavin Henson has been banned from driving for a month
after he was caught driving at 110mph (177kph) on the M4 motorway.
[...]
Chairwoman of the bench, Jeanette Hawker, said: "You are going to be
disqualified for 28 days from today and you must not drive any motor
vehicle"
"Please don't have the keys of a car in your pocket or sit in the
drivers seat as that could be construed as breaking the order."

What complete and utter bollocks this ignorant woman is talking.
Where do they get these people from?

Legally speaking, if you're sat in the car, with the keys for it, you're
'in charge' - being disqualified means you can't be 'in charge' of a
vehicle.
Or something like that.
Not fully up to speed with the legal speak for it all, but that's how it
works.

She's not.
I have a friend who was done for drink driving as he staggered from his
car (parked at his house) to his local chippy.
Police stopped him for being drunk then realised he was carrying his
car keys so he got done.
They didn't even need to show that he had used the car, although he
had.
He's pretty unlucky that way he got done a second time driving home
from the pub, a drive of all of 400 yards from his house.

No it does not. It means your driving licence is suspended by order of
the court and you cannot legally drive.
There is no requirement to hold a driving licence to be "in charge of a
motor vehicle".

No it isn't.

like they were saying :

Sorry - he "staggered" FROM HIS CAR to the chippy... and was surprised he
got nicked for drink-driving?

That's not down to luck - that's down to 100%% pure-breed stupidity.
Actually, no, that's unfair to the vast majority of people who are
unfortunate enough to be stupid. Your "friend" is a complete and utter
fuckwit.
