Chelsea's Wesley Fofana Gets 300 Hours' Service, Driving Ban to 2027 After Dashcam Video

The case stemmed from an April dashcam recording on Surrey’s A3, with the court stressing his role‑model responsibility.

Overview

  • A Telegraph-published dashcam video captured Fofana making dangerous maneuvers in a Lamborghini on April 20 near Hook, Surrey.
  • He pleaded guilty at North East Surrey court and received an 18‑month community order including 300 hours of unpaid work.
  • Judge Julie Cooper condemned his conduct and warned that young admirers could imitate such behavior without similar safety protections.
  • Prosecutors said he sped along the hard shoulder in an 80 km/h zone without signaling while approaching a marked bend.
  • His licence will not be returned before May 13, 2027, following prior sanctions that had already left him without a valid permit after eight earlier offences.
