Zara Tindall, the daughter of Princess Anne and the queen’s granddaughter, has been banned from driving for six month after she was caught going over 90 mph on a 70 mph road near her home, BBC News reports. Tindall, 38, reportedly had nine points on her license already, and the latest offense—involving a Land Rover in Gloucestershire in November—added four more points and netted a fine of £800. Tindall’s mother, the queen’s sister, was reportedly caught speeding on the same stretch of road in 2001.
