Speeding costs Emma Watson six months of driving privileges


Call her Emma Walks-on.

Emma Watson, who played Hermione Granger in the eight “Harry Potter” films, lost his privileges of driving for six months on Wednesday in Britain after accumulating more than a dozen points in his driving record in the two -year space.

He was also ordered to pay more than $ 1,400 (1,044 pounds), according to multiple media reports on Wednesday. Watson did not attend the hearing in the High Wycombe Magistrates court, about 30 miles northwest London. He had previously declared himself guilty of the crime by mail.

The actor “Beauty and The Beast”, 35, already had 9 points in his record, the BBC reported, linked to crimes in October 2023, November 2023 and January 2024.

The most recent appointment came on July 31, 2024, for conducting its Audi A3 38 MPH in a 30 mph area, according to The Mirror. That is the same car that, according to the reports, was towed in February 2024 after Watson did not see a sign of “no parking”, blocked an entrance path, went to meet her mother on a pub on the other side of the street and caught a couple of cars in a complex closed for more than three hours.

In addition, in a strange coincidence, actor Zoe Wanamaker, who appeared as an instructor of Madame Hooch's flying room in the “Harry Potter and the Stone of the Sorcerer” of 2001, received the same treatment for almost the same offense shortly after the Watson license was taken, SUN reported Wednesday. The actor, who works mainly on television, recently produced to go to 46 MPH in a 40 mph area. She also reached 12 points in her record with her fourth speed appointment.

Wanamaker received a fine of $ 885 (660 pounds) and hit with $ 488 (364 pounds) in judicial costs, according to the sun. Watson's total payment also included judicial costs.

The offenses of speeding in Great Britain transport 3 to 6 points each, depending on the circumstance, and remain in the driver's record for four years. Driving under the influence, called “driving” or “drug driving” in the United Kingdom, has up to 11 points, as well as violations, such as vehicular homicide, road races and “dangerous” or “or” furious “driving. Serious violations remain in a driver record for up to 11 years.

Watson, who last appeared on the big screen as Meg in “Little Women” of 2019, followed by a role in the Promotonal Short Film “Paradoxe” for a Prada campaign in 2022, is studying for the equivalent of a doctorate in creative writing at the University of Oxford. He graduated from Brown University in Providence, RI with a degree in 2014.

Also in the front of “Harry Potter”, while the magical story prepares for its restart of television series, HBO launched a first -glance photo of “How to train your dragon”, actor Nick Frost, made as Hagrid. Robbie Coltrane, who played half the giant of goalkeeper Rubeus Hagrid in the films, died in October 2022 of multiple organic insufficiency after two years of illness.
