What happened with David Beckham's speeding ticket?
The famous star was recently caught doing 59mph with his £200,000 Bentley in a 40mph area.
However, the notice letting him know he'd be prosecuted didn't arrive until 15 days after, passing the two-week deadline by a day.
Because of that, the footballer avoided punishment thanks to his lawyer Nick Freeman - also known as Mr. Loophole - defended his case.
Even though he is the one that got Becks out of trouble, he said David should have received a punishment regardless of the minor prosecution error.

Talking on BBC's Today programme, he said: "It was made quite clear from the very start that Mr. Beckham didn't dispute that he was speeding.
"Anyone who accepts that they were the driver and they were speeding, you would think in the normal course from a moral standpoint they should be convicted."
He called for the law to be changed by the Parliament to close this loophole.
Following the case David went on a lavish date night in France with his wife which included a £1,300 bottle of wine and a plate of snails.
