Rangers captain James Tavernier cleared of dangerous driving and says he feels 'vindicated'

Rangers captain James Tavernier claimed he feels vindicated after he was cleared today of dangerous driving.

Tavernier denied the single charge claiming that he conducts himself to "set an example on and off the pitch."Simpson pled guilty in May 2022 to careless driving for his part in the incident and was fined £920 and given five penalty points.He said: "Mr Tavernier feels completely vindicated, he could have taken the easy option when he was offered a fixed penalty but he always maintained his innocence and believed he did nothing wrong.

He then claimed that he approached a roundabout at Canniesburn Toll a different police car pulled in front of him. He added: "I didn't think it was fair, I believed I wasn't speeding - I've been driving for 13 years and had no points - I think I'm safe on the road.Prosecutor Gail Campbell asked if Tavernier thought the police officers were lying.PC Birrell earlier told the court that he could hear Tavernier and Simpson's engine revving approaching the red light.

If he didn’t break the law then he was right to fight injustice - just hope footballers don’t use their status / money to get their outcomes
