Former Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has been banned from driving for six months after authorities were unable to obtain information identifying who was driving his Rolls-Royce when it was caught speeding in Cheshire.
The incident happened on 27 March 2026 in Wilmslow, Cheshire, when a speed camera recorded Salah’s electric Rolls-Royce Spectre travelling at 36mph in a 30mph zone. The incident came just two days after Salah announced that he would leave Liverpool at the end of the 2025–26 season.
The important point is that Salah was not ultimately convicted of the speeding offence itself. Reports state that the speeding charge was withdrawn. Instead, he was convicted of failing to provide information about who was driving the vehicle when requested by authorities.
Salah reportedly did not respond to the prosecution notice and did not enter a plea. The case was dealt with at Warrington Combined Court under the Single Justice Procedure, which allows certain cases to be handled by magistrates without a traditional public hearing.
The court imposed a six-month driving disqualification and ordered Salah to pay £1,044 in total. The reported breakdown is:
* £660 fine
* £120 court costs
* £264 victim surcharge
🔴 Salah’s Liverpool connection
The timing attracted attention because the speeding incident occurred only days after Salah announced his departure from Liverpool following nine seasons at Anfield.
Liverpool said at the time that Salah had firmly established himself among the club’s greatest players. He finished his Liverpool career with 257 goals in 442 appearances, winning major honours including the Premier League and Champions League.
Salah subsequently moved to Trabzonspor in Turkey, where he has continued playing and has reportedly made a strong start to the season.
This isn’t his first speeding issue
Salah previously received a £200 fine and three penalty points in 2022 after being caught speeding while driving his Ferrari F8 Tributo.
So, to be precise, the new six-month ban is connected to the failure to identify the driver, following the Rolls-Royce speeding incident—not simply because he was caught travelling at 36mph.
