		</div><p>Former glamour model Katie Price has been banned from driving for a second time after admitting mistakenly getting behind the wheel before her first disqualification period ended.</p>
<p>The 40-year-old was also handed a £1,100 fine when she appeared at Crawley Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday.</p>
<p>The reality star was summonsed to court to answer the charges after she was spotted driving on the A24 near her West Sussex home on July 25, while a six-month driving ban was still in place.</p>
<p>She had driven back from the short stay car park at Gatwick Airport to Dial Post, a hamlet near Horsham, after traveling by train into London to take her son to a medical appointment, the court heard.</p>
<p>She made the discovery after being phoned by a newspaper informing her she had breached her ban, which was later confirmed by police, magistrates were told.</p>
<p>She was banned from driving for six months in February but Paul Macaulay, defending, said Price had mistakenly believed the ban had dated from an earlier hearing in January – which meant it would have ended in early July.</p>
<p>But he conceded she had not contacted the DVLA about reinstating her driving licence before she was caught because she was “not the best” at paperwork, he told the court.</p>
<p>Arriving in a black saloon car and greeted by a large pack of photographers, Price wore a brown fur Cossack-style hat and matching poncho with black leggings and sunglasses, and was flanked by two bodyguards and several advisers.</p>
<p>She removed her hat before entering the courtroom with her lawyer, who carried a large brown bag for her.</p>
<p>Standing in the dock, she spoke only to confirm her name, date of birth and address before sitting down to listen to the proceedings.</p>
<p>Magistrates adjourned the hearing while they decided on a sentence.</p>
<p>Handing her the ban, chairman of the bench Serena Stewart told her: <em>“Our advice is not to drive until you have your licence in your hand.”</em></p>
<p>Price said “thank you” to the magistrates as she left the courtroom.</p>
<p>She did not respond when reporters outside the building asked if she had any comment to make.</p>
