Mr Loophole's daughter left to her fate
Nick Freeman said he wanted Sophie, 19, to learn her lesson from the punishment.
Mr Freeman, who lives in Cheshire, said he could have found a way to defeat the fine, but decided the punishment would help to teach her to drive safely. She was doing 63mph in a 50mph zone and faces a 60 fine.

“Every fibre of my parental instinct told me that Sophie had to understand the consequences of breaking the law and that speeding can be a serious and dangerous issue. I’m a hypocrite. I know.”
Mr Freeman helped a string of celebrity clients to avoid driving bans, including Jeremy Clarkson and David Beckham, by finding unusual technical defences for their speeding.
