YouTuber jailed after posting videos of dangerous driving A YouTuber from the UK has been thrown in jail after posting videos of himself driving dangerously fast on crowded public roads. It\u2019s not unusual for auto YouTubers to post videos of themselves pushing high-performance cars to their limit, but generally, these are filmed on closed tracks and courses. However, one influencer from the UK has found out the hard way why you don\u2019t drive like a maniac on public roads, and then post videos of it online \u2014 as they\u2019ve been jailed for over two years for doing so. YouTuber jailed for dangerous driving According to reports, the YouTuber in question is named Adeel Habib. Habib was purportedly the one behind the Certi Drivers channel, which had close to 70,000 subscribers before being removed from the site. His videos often featured him driving dangerously on crowded public roads, but in the end they ended up costing him dearly. After being arrested on drugs charges, Habib plead guilty to dangerous driving and encouraging dangerous driving at a court appearance in Leeds, according to the BBC. He was sentenced to 27 months in jail for the dangerous driving, and that\u2019s on top of the four years he was already serving for an unrelated drugs charge. The police first learned about the Certi Driving channel during an investigation into dangerous driving at illegal car meets. But Habib was arrested on drugs charges first, and so the driving charges were tacked on after he was already in jail. Cops called Habib \u201cabsolutely shameless\u201d for \u201cregularly posting videos of his antics to impress his many followers.\u201d Like we mentioned Habib\u2019s Certi Drivers channel was deleted in June 2022, and from the looks of things it doesn\u2019t seem like it will be coming back anytime soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
