Mohamed Salah receives six-month driving ban
Mohamed Salah Hamed Mahrous Ghaly, known professionally as Mohamed Salah, was given a six-month driving disqualification after authorities said he failed to provide information identifying the driver of his Rolls-Royce. The case was handled at Warrington Combined Court.
Court records linked the case to a March 27, 2026, speed camera incident in Wilmslow, Cheshire. The vehicle was recorded at 36 mph in a 30 mph zone, but the court conviction concerned the failure to provide driver identification information rather than the speeding allegation itself.
Salah’s Rolls-Royce was recorded at 36 mph
A speed camera recorded Mohamed Salah’s Rolls-Royce traveling at 36 mph in a 30 mph zone in Wilmslow, Cheshire, on March 27, 2026. The camera reading showed the vehicle traveling 6 mph above the posted limit.
Salah did not respond to a notice of prosecution brought by Cheshire Constabulary or enter a plea, according to court reporting. He was convicted under the Single Justice Procedure of failing to provide information identifying the driver.
Mohamed Salah was convicted over driver details
Mohamed Salah was convicted of failing to provide information relating to the identity of the driver of the Rolls-Royce. The court record therefore focused on the missing driver information rather than establishing that Salah personally exceeded the speed limit.
The distinction matters because the reported speeding charge was not the offence resulting in the conviction. Reports from the Press Association and British media state the court dealt with the failure to identify the driver, while the original speed camera allegation involved 36 mph in a 30 mph area.
Mohamed Salah must pay £1,044
Mohamed Salah was ordered to pay £1,044 alongside the six-month driving disqualification. The total reported by the court spokeswoman consists of a £660 fine, £120 in court costs and a £264 victim surcharge.
The financial penalty adds up to £1,044, while the driving restriction lasts six months. The case was processed at Warrington Combined Court under the Single Justice Procedure, which is used in England and Wales for certain minor offences that can be decided without a traditional court appearance.
Mohamed Salah’s case used a single magistrate
Mohamed Salah’s case was processed through the Single Justice Procedure, a system that allows certain minor offences to be decided by a magistrate without a traditional courtroom hearing. The procedure covers some summary offences, including specified motoring cases.
GOV.UK states that defendants normally have 21 days to respond to a Single Justice Procedure notice. If no response is received within that period, a magistrate can make a decision based on the information available, including a possible conviction, fine, or penalty points.
Mohamed Salah faces a six month restriction
Mohamed Salah’s six-month disqualification means he cannot legally drive during the period of the ban. GOV. The UK states that a person cannot drive until a driving disqualification has ended, with additional license requirements applying to bans lasting 56 days or more.
UK rules also show that failing to provide information about a driver’s identity carries endorsement code MS90. GOV.UK lists MS90 as carrying 6 penalty points, although the reported Salah case resulted in a six-month disqualification rather than simply being described as a points-only penalty.
Fun fact: As a teenager, Mohamed Salah spent about 4 to 4½ hours traveling to training in Cairo, five days a week. He told Liverpool FC that he sometimes had to change buses as many as five times to get there.

Salah then completed his Liverpool career at the end of the 2025 to 2026 season before moving to Trabzonspor. The court case became public in September 2026, several months after the original March incident and after his transfer to Turkey.
