Flintoff, 30, was captured on camera allegedly speeding at 87mph in a 50mph zone, but his solicitor Nick Freeman argued that because his notice of prosecution had arrived late, the case should be discharged.
After conceding that the Crown had not followed correct procedures, the prosecution at Liverpool Magistrates’ Court told the Lancashire all-rounder that it would offer no evidence.
Mr Flintoff, a father of three, who lives in Altrincham, Cheshire, had been accused of speeding in a temporary 50mph zone of the M62 motorway near Huyton, Liverpool when he was driving a friend’s car on July 1, 2007.
