A district judge in the UK has ruled David Beckham will not be prosecuted over a speeding charge.

Celebrity lawyer Nick Freeman, known as Mr Loophole, successfully fought the allegation for him on a technicality.

The former England football captain was accused of driving a loaned Bentley at 59 miles per hour in a 40 miles per hour zone in January.

However, Freeman had argued a speeding notice arrived one day too late.

The lawyer previously helped Beckham overturn an eight‑month driving ban in 1999, after successfully arguing he was trying to escape a paparazzi photographer
