Crystal Palace star Pape Souare is being privately prosecuted for dangerous driving by another motorist who was involved in a crash that nearly ended the footballer's career last year.
The 27-year-old left-back suffered a broken right thigh and jaw and had to be cut from the wreckage of his £135,000 black Mercedes G63 SUV and airlifted to hospital.
Souare appeared at Isleworth Crown Court on a summons of driving dangerously on the M4 on September 11, 2016.
