Dangerous driving

[C36M]

Hello, I share a 4 year old daughter with my ex partner. In the space of 8 months my ex partner has been caught speeding twice, going through a red light, and drink driving (these are all a few months apart). He has been on awareness courses, fined, and now he has lost his licence for 12 months.

He is listed on the local news website today (Sunday) that he has been banned from driving, but he was driving with our daughter in his car Friday evening. Do magistrates courts open on a weekend? If not he would have been driving whilst disqualified with our daughter in the car?

I’m so worried he isn’t going to learn from this ban, I’m going to be so on edge whenever he has her 😫 Not really sure where I’m going with this, just wanted to vent I think

Contact the police on the non emergency number if you know he’s driving while banned, give them the reg number of the car he’s using.
And don’t let him take her if he’s driving.

Thank you for your reply. So I called the court this morning and apparently he has been banned from driving since the 19th June and the incident happened in May. He has been driving our daughter around this whole time. I don’t want to report him and him end up in prison, but he drove after the euro final too when he had been drinking so he has not learnt from this

For your child's safety, I think you have to report.
Also refuse to let her go with him if he arrives to pick her up in a car

Why not? Why EVER not? He's risking your kid and he might kill someone and you'll have blood on your hands if you don't do anything. It is your duty to report him. Mind you, his number plate will be on the police database and he could get stopped at any time. But you still need to report him.
