Russell Brand faces court after being charged by police with driving offences Russell Brand is due in court over allegations he was twice caught speeding and failed to respond to police letters about the alleged offences.
But a joint investigation by The Sunday Times, The Times, and Channel 4 Dispatches revealed last year that four women had accused Brand of sexual assaults between 2006 and 2013.
Separately, Brand is under investigation by the Metropolitan Police over allegations of sex crimes made against him by multiple women.
The Standard first reported the driving offences case in November last year, when prosecutions were brought through the Single Justice Procedure.
The comedian and actor, 49, faces claims he was speeding on the motorway and also broke a 30mph limit on a stretch of residential road.
