Rowan Grant

Rowan Grant has been sentenced to 10 years in prison and a lifetime driving ban following a multi-vehicle crash in Nottinghamshire on 9 December 2025. Grant pleaded guilty to causing death by dangerous driving, causing death by driving whilst disqualified, causing death by driving whilst unlicensed and uninsured, and causing serious injury by dangerous driving.

The incident occurred when Grant, who was already disqualified from driving, travelled at speeds exceeding 80mph through Broxtowe. He collided with a vehicle stopped at a red light, resulting in the death of a 36-year-old man and leaving the victim's partner with life-changing injuries. Following the collision, Grant initially falsely claimed that his girlfriend had been driving the vehicle and later alleged that he had suffered an epileptic seizure behind the wheel.

Police investigations confirmed that Grant had taken the vehicle without consent and was travelling at excessive speed at the time of the collision. As part of his sentence, Grant received a lifetime disqualification from driving.
