Back in April, Jordan Pickford was spotted pulling out of a road junction in Knutsford in his blue Lamborghini Urus, ignoring a Give Way sign, and forcing two cars to slam their brakes on before he zoomed off. But his rash driving had already been spotted by the long arm of the law, who would go on to charge him for driving without due care and attention.
PC Cecil Ricardo from Cheshire Police said he had just left the station when he saw Pickford’s £200,000 supercar complete with personalised number plates.
“I was stationary on Bexton Road, Knutsford, waiting for traffic signals to turn green,” he wrote.
“I then witnessed a blue Lamborghini Urus driving along Princess Street.
“It reached the junction with Toft Road, completely ignored the give way lines and pulled onto Toft Road causing two vehicles to slam on their brakes to avoid a collision.
“The Lamborghini then sped down Toft Road, Knutsford. The speed limit on that stretch of Toft Road, Knutsford, is 30mph,” he noted.
The officer said Pickford appeared to notice the chasing police car and pulled over.
Pickford pleaded guilty in writing in the Single Justice Procedure and told Warrington Magistrates Court: “I would like to attend court to put forward my mitigation.”
His case was formally adjourned last week with a hearing set for Chester Magistrates’ Court on 7 December.
