His windows only let in a reported four per cent of light, when the minimum UK requirement is 70 per cent Stormzy has pleaded guilty to driving a Lamborghini with illegally tinted windows. The London rapper – real name Michael Ebenazer Owuo Jr. – submitted a guilty plea yesterday (July 24), after driving the Urus around Kingston upon Thames on October 17 last year.
The minimum requirement for cars in the UK is to allow 70 percent of light through the two front windows. However, BBC reported that the artist’s £200k sports car only let through four per cent – dark enough to “involve a danger of injury to any person”. Stormzy indicated the guilty plea, but did not attend yesterday’s hearing at the Lavender Hill Magistrates’ Court.
According to BBC , this isn’t the first time that the ‘Big For Your Boots’ rapper has found himself in legal trouble for his cars. It has also been alleged that he was caught using a hand-held phone while driving his £250k Rolls-Royce Wraith earlier this year. As per the reports, he was spotted on the phone at around 3:30pm on March 7, driving Addison Road, West Kensington.
The Lavender Hill Magistrates’ Court adjourned the case until October 16. Stormzy performs on stage at Bergenfest 2024 on June 14, 2024 in Bergen, Norway.
