PREM ACE SHAME

Jack Grealish: Moment Aston Villa captain crashes Range Rover in lockdown before stumbling out in odd slippers

THIS is the moment “slurring” Jack Grealish swerves across the road and smashes his £80k Range Rover three times - before stumbling out in odd slippers.

The England ace was today fined £82,000 and banned from driving for nine months for reversing his luxury 4x4 into a Mercedes and Citroen just six days into the March lockdown.

this afternoon, West Midlands Police said based on "the hard evidence available", they were able to charge Grealish with "driving without due care and attention";.

The Force added: "It’s shocking a role model to so many has repeatedly behaved in an illegal and reckless manner."

Charges of failing to stop and failing to report the accident were dropped.

Police had been called to the scene in March and went to the home where Grealish was believed to have been earlier but he wasn't there.

After checking the insurance for the Range Rover, cops then went to Grealish's property but he wasn't home.

But while waiting for the careless driving matter to be heard, Grealish was filmed by cops reaching speeds of up to 98mph on October 18.

Judge Bristow said the footballer “intimidated” other drivers on the M42, and “cut up” and “tailgated” drivers on the A446.

Grealish was pulled over at the entrance of Villa's Bodymoor Heath training ground after being watched for 10 minutes.

Mr Dye said that the star had been late for training and “didn’t want to be thought of badly by his club and his peers.”

The court heard Grealish already had six penalty points on his licence for speeding on a motorway in 2018.

He was handed six points for each of the offences and banned for passing the 12-point limit.

Judge Bristow told him: “On both March 29 and October 18, the standard of your driving fell below what could be expected of a careful and competent driver.”

Grealish's barrister said that star intends to make a donation to road safety charity Brake.
