A judge has publicly apologized after being caught speeding multiple times while traveling to and from court. Deputy District Judge Charles Crow received nine penalty points on his driving license for three separate speeding violations between November 2023 and March 2026, according to the Judicial Conduct Investigations Office (JCIO). The JCIO is an independent body responsible for investigating complaints and misconduct among judges in England and Wales. In response to the findings, Judge Crow expressed that he was "embarrassed" by his actions and accepted full responsibility for the offenses. He explained that the speeding incidents occurred while he was "rushing" to court and pledged to take steps to prevent future occurrences. These steps include using public transportation more frequently, improving his time management, and employing speed-limiting controls when he does drive. The judicial misconduct proceedings against Judge Crow were handled through a fast-track process, which is used for cases where the individual accepts responsibility for their actions. These hearings are typically held in private to protect the privacy of those involved. According to the JCIO, Judge Crow acknowledged that his actions constituted misconduct and outlined specific measures to address the issue. The Lady Chief Justice, with the agreement of the Lord Chancellor, has formally advised Judge Crow regarding the misconduct. This formal advice serves as a reminder of the expected standards of behavior for judicial officers. The JCIO emphasized that Judge Crow has taken the matter seriously and is committed to ensuring that such incidents do not happen again.
