Actor Steve Coogan escapes six-month driving ban, gets fined and shorter ban after speeding.

Actor Steve Coogan avoided a six-month driving ban after pleading that it would disrupt production of his TV show "The Trip" with Rob Brydon. Coogan, caught speeding at 97mph, was given a two-month ban and fined £2,500, plus costs and a victim surcharge. He had argued for five penalty points instead of six to avoid the longer ban, highlighting his driving is essential for the show's production.
