Johnny Ruffo pleads guilty to driving charges

Home and Away actor Johnny Ruffo has pleaded guilty to a string of driving offences, including driving while his licence was cancelled.

His lawyer, Nic Angelov, pleaded guilty to five separate charges on his behalf in Sydney’s Downing Centre Local Court yesterday.

Ruffo, 27, was spotted by police driving an Audi along George Street in Sydney on September 18. The uninsured vehicle’s registration had expired the previous year, while Ruffo’s licence was cancelled in January.

Ruffo had previously accrued 13 speeding tickets before his licence was suspended for driving between 30 and 45 km/h over the limit.

Last March he was placed on a six-month good behaviour bond for driving while his licence was cancelled.

He is due to be sentenced on February 11.
