The British-American national was recorded driving at nearly four times the speed limit in a village about 184km from the Romanian capital, Bucharest.

The 38-year-old received a fine of £310 ($420), in line with local traffic legislation, and had his driving licence suspended for 120 days due to the severity of the offence, police said. Tate has denied he was speeding and said he would appeal.

The self-proclaimed misogynist and his brother, Tristan, are currently facing charges including rape and human trafficking in Romania, as well as separate allegations in the UK and US. They deny any wrongdoing.

The brothers are allowed to travel in Romania, where they live, and abroad, subject to court-ordered conditions while their cases are pending.
