A Cheshire lawyer, known as Mr Loophole for helping celebrity clients evade driving bans, has refused to help his own daughter fight a speeding ticket.

Nick Freeman said he wanted Sophie to learn her lesson from the punishment.

The 19-year-old was driving the Mini cabriolet back from the family's apartment in Abersoch, North Wales, at 63mph in a temporary 50mph zone.

"I think it's always important that as a parent you always teach your children the right way," he said.

"I don't think it is particularly harsh, I think it's what parents should do.

"Without any doubt at all I could have avoided a conviction on her behalf, but that's the dilemma isn't it, what does one do as a father and as a lawyer?"

Good on him.

I think that's the right thing to do.

She couldn't afford him anyway...
