Rangers star accused of dangerous driving
The charge says he hit speeds well beyond the speed limits on Glasgow's M8.
Rangers winger Rabbi Matondo is to stand trial accused of dangerous driving.
The 23-year-old allegedly committed the offence on Glasgow's M8 on August 1, 2023.
Court papers state the Welsh international was behind the wheel of an Audi Q8 sports car at the time.
The charge says Matondo drove at speeds grossly in excess of the prevailing speed limits.
It is claimed he drove at excessive speeds for the road and traffic conditions as well as failed to maintain proper discipline.
The allegations go on to say Matondo repeatedly failed to maintain an adequate stopping distance behind preceding motor vehicles.
He is further claimed to have overtaken a motor vehicle on the inside lane and drove in the path of a preceding motor vehicle.
Matondo is then alleged to have caused the drivers of preceding motor vehicles to change lanes.
He is lastly accused of braking harshly, going through a red light, failed to comply with road markings, drove across a roundabout and accelerated harshly.
Matondo, of the city's Woodlands, pled not guilty today at Glasgow Sheriff Court by letter.
A trial has been set for September.
