Actress Jade Goody has been charged with driving without licence and insurance certificate.
According to reports, when the police stopped the ‘Big Brother’ star’s BMW X5 at a M1 service station in Newport Pagnell, Bucks on Sunday night, she was carrying neither her driving licence nor the insurance certificate.
Goody, who was vilified in the media for her racist slur on Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty on Celebrity Big Brother, is due to appear before Milton Keynes JPs on June 20.
“I’ve been stopped a few times but I don’t know about a court appearance,” the Sun quoted her as saying.
The actress had got a similar charge rejected last year too, when she claimed to have passed her test on Celebrity Driving School, but she famously failed on the Comic Relief show in 2003.
She was seen taking driving lessons at the Harlow-based Lady Driving School in November 2003, and in August 2004 she was reported to have passed the driving test.

This proves that even if you are a ‘Z’ list celebrity, you cannot escape the long arm of the law, even in Bedford and Northamptonshire.!!
Excuse me, but since when has Jade Goody been an actress? Still, she’d be happy having a driving lesson with me. I’ve got a video camera fitted in my car, so she’d be quite at home and having a reality experience with a Bedford And District Driving Instructors Association member. Who knows, we might even end up on u tube.
