EssexLive reports that Richie was accused of driving 5mph above the speed limit. The actor admitted the speeding offence, leading to the road ban and financial penalty.
Richie's case highlights the distinction between the speeding charge, to which he pleaded guilty, and the drink-driving allegation, which he contests. The two matters are being handled separately through the courts.
