David Beckham admits using a mobile phone while driving his 2018 £100,000 Bentley

Football legend, David Beckham has admitted driving his
Bentley while using a mobile phone. The former England
captain was charged after a member of the public told
police they saw the 43-year-old on the phone while driving
in London's West End.
Scotland Yard Police in a statement said: "The Met
understands a postal guilty plea was subsequently received
by Bromley Magistrates' Court."

The father-of-four was said to have been witnessed driving
his 2018 Bentley while using his phone in Great Portland
Street on November 21. Two months earlier Beckham was
accused of "shirking his responsibility" as a role model after
avoiding prosecution on a speeding charge because of a
technicality.
Enlisting the services of celebrity lawyer Nick Freeman, who
is dubbed "Mr Loophole", Beckham accepted he drove a
loaned Bentley at 59mph in a 40mph zone in west London
in January last year but Beckham did not face further action
because a notice of intended prosecution (NIP) was not
received until one day after the statutory 14-day time limit.
This prompted Joshua Harris, director of campaigns for
Brake, to say it was "hugely disappointing" to see the role
model "shirking his responsibility and getting off a speeding
prosecution on a mere technicality".
Beckham was sent another NIP over the latest incident and
was subsequently charged on February 5, according to court
staff who were unable to access any details of a plea. The
matter is listed to be heard at the court in Bromley on
Tuesday, but Beckham is not expected to attend and
members of the Press and public will not be admitted.
The hearing will be an administrative one, known as a single
justice procedure, where a single magistrate may choose to
impose points or a fine. Freeman also assisted Beckham in
overturning an eight-month driving ban in 1999 after arguing
that the footballer was trying to escape a paparazzi
photographer.
