Former ‘Harry Potter’ star Emma Watson has been banned from driving for six months after being caught speeding.
The 35-year-old British actress and activist was clocked driving her blue Audi at more than 60kmph in a 48kmph zone in Oxford, England, on the evening of July 31 last year.
She did not appear for the hearing at High Wycombe Magistrates’ Court yesterday, where she was fined $1,400 and disqualified from driving, according to PA Media.
Shortly after Watson’s case was heard, the court considered a separate speeding offence involving her former ‘Harry Potter’ co-star, Zoë Wanamaker, who also received the same sentence as Watson after she was caught driving at almost 75kmph in a 64kmph zone in Berkshire.
