Bath Magistrates’ Court heard the former athlete was driving her Mini at 65mph when the speed limit had been temporarily dropped to 50mph. Magistrates were told Davies, who was excused from attending the pre-trial hearing, denies the offence and has opted for a trial. Presiding justice Gail Bragg adjourned proceedings for a case management hearing on October 21 before a district judge. “This matter is now going to be adjourned for a case management hearing on October 21,” she said. Last year, Davies became embroiled in a row over single sex toilets at Wiltshire Council buildings.
