Emma Watson Banned From Driving for Speeding

Emma Watson, best known for her role in the Harry Potter film series, was banned from driving for six months after being caught speeding at 38mph in a 30mph zone in Oxford in July 2024. She was fined £1,044 by High Wycombe Magistrates' Court, having already accumulated nine points on her license from previous offences. Watson did not attend the brief hearing and was represented by her lawyer. Her Audi S3 had previously been impounded for illegal parking, resulting in a separate fine. Since stepping back from acting, Watson has focused on her doctorate studies at Oxford University and activism, notably supporting trans rights. She is also reportedly in a relationship with a fellow Oxford student.
