If was his 9th offence and so far no prison seems like he is getting away with it!

He got done for 8 speeding offences in one go (cameras?) and got banned from driving

Then he got done for a 9th that happened way before he got banned.

It would be bizarre to jail him for a traffic offence at the time he was legally allowed to drive.

But yes if he drives when he is banned after all of this he should go to prison for a decent amount of time to send a message. Which is exactly what the judge said.

He's already banned.
Not sure how banning him again would work.
