England and Nottingham Forest attacking midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White has been handed a £1,000 court bill after his Range Rover was caught running a red light. The vehicle was filmed going past a set of lights in West Bridgford, Nottinghamshire, 1.1 seconds after they turned red on 28 January.
Gibbs-White, 26, was convicted last Tuesday of failing to provide the identity of a driver at the time of an offence. This followed his failure to respond to two police letters asking him to confirm if he had been driving.
At Southern Derbyshire Magistrates' Court, he was fined £660, given six penalty points on his licence, and ordered to pay £120 in costs and a £264 victim surcharge. Gibbs-White did not enter a plea or mitigation, and was sentenced behind closed doors under the fast-track Single Justice Procedure.
Nottinghamshire Police had put out an alert on Gibbs-White's car during their investigation, discovering the number plate registered with the DVLA differed by one letter from what was on the vehicle. Staffordshire Police later pulled over the Range Rover in April and confirmed it belonged to him.
Gibbs-White was previously banned from driving for six months in May last year after being caught speeding six times in three months. At that time, he was ordered to pay just under £4,000 in fines for those offences.
