Conor McGregor’s arrest in March for dangerous driving resulted in the Irish sports star being charged with six counts. According to a spokesperson for the Blanchardstown District Court (via ESPN), McGregor is being charged with two counts of dangerous driving, driving without a license, failing to present a license, driving without insurance and failing to present insurance records.
McGregor was arrested on March 22 as he was driving on the highway to his gym in Dublin. The police claimed he was walking on the left, while McGregor counter that he was getting off the highway. His lawyers can help him do that, but without a license or insurance it’s much more difficult and dreary.
McGregor will be able to bear any fines arising from those allegations, but there’s a chance he could have his license revoked again. as he did in 2018.
